Passing Values between forms?

[andycharger]

I need to pass a variable from one form to another.

 

So when I do

 

frm2.Show()

frm1.Close()

 

It opens a new form.

 

However, I thought I could pass my variable from frm1 by doing this:

 

frm2.Show(strValue1,strValue2)

frm1.close

 

But it wont let me.

 

How can I pass the values? Using

 

strNewValue = frm1.strValue is not acceptible because frm2 will need to be accessed from more than one form so I cant ask for frm1.strValue if, say frm3 is passing the string.

 

Any ideas how I pass values from one form to another?

If there is a problem, I can count on you to fix!

 

However, I had cracked it myself and was just writing a post to say I had solved it.
