Data Passing Between Classes

[fixitchris]

Is there a problem with this setup? I am trying to use a value from one private Dataset to populate another private Dataset...

 

Public Class Form1
  Private Sub ListBox1_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ListBox1.Click
       Dim frm2 As New Form2
       frm2.Text = frm2.Text & " HNDL" & Convert.ToString(frm2.Handle)
       colForms.Add(frm2)
       frm2.Show()

       [b]frm2.stest = ListBox1.Text[/b]
   End Sub
End Class

public class Form2
   [b]protected friend sTest as string[/b]
end class

 

or is it better to set up properties?

public class form2
  Private m_SQLparam As String

   Public WriteOnly Property SQLparam() As String
       Set(ByVal value As String)
           m_SQLparam = value
       End Set
   End Property
end class

 

and call frm2.sqlparam= listbox1.text on form1?

 

 

OR there's a better way yet???

Properties are allways the better solution.
