Yassin,

I'd do what Mike suggested. If your TextBox on both Forms are bound to a DataSet, then when you open Form B (I assume it's to be modal? open it with .ShowDialog()), you can pass the DataSet as a parameter.

Form A

// Databind text box
this.MyTextBox.DataBind.Add("Text", MyDataSet.Tables["MyTable"], "MyColumn");

// Call FormB
FormB o = new FormB(MyDataSet);
o.ShowDialog();

// do other things with the new value of stuff in MyDataSet, that were set in FormB

FormB

private DataSet oData;

// constructor
public FormB(DataSet data)
{
    this.oData = data;
}

// load event (I typically databind from the Load event)
private void FormB_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.DataBind();
}
private void DataBind()
{
    this.MyTextBox.DataBind.Add("Text", this.oData.Tables["MyTable"], "MyColumn");
}

>This is what I am trying to do, I have two forms A and B with a text box on each form. When someone types something on form A, I want to display form B with data populated on from the Form A text box to Form B text box. Once the user has done editing in Form B, I want to return the focus back on the text box on Form A.
