Global strings?

[Getox]

Is there any way to make a global string?

i want to have 2 forms, and in Form2 the user will type some text into a textbox, and then when they click an OK button, it will add this text to a string which will then be usable in Form1

To setup a global variable in Form1 declare a variable Public Shared...Public Shared myVaiable As String. Then from Form2 use Form1.myVaiable = "my string".

 

And try http://testing123.info/threads/93824/ for configuring a delegate for your Button1.Click.

 

However.....

 

In most opinions it is better to add a new class to your project and use a public properity to store the variable.

 

There is a post "Global Variables" on this site that goes into more detail why this is a better approach.
