MDIParent controlling MDIChild richTextBox control

[jcrcarmo]

Hi folks,

 

I was wondering what the code to do the following is:

 

MDIParent form needs to load the text of a MS Word Document into a richTextBox located in MDIChild form.

 

How do I accomplish that??

 

Thanks in advance,

 

JC :)

If you declare the richtextbox as public you can access its properties from the mdi parent, however thats perhaps not the best method. You could create a public method called LoadText as part of the mdi child, you can then call the method from the mdi parent, which will then load the text into the richtextbox.
