>>I get the whole 'ME' here refers to the TextBox, so, one would think, if I wanted to change the text of a label (lblStudentName) I would refer to it as me.parent.lbl, but it doesn't seem to like that. It wants me.lblStudentName.Text. It seems to kinda act like the royal 'we'.

>Me refers to the current class. Your eventhandler is probably written as a method of the form so me = the form.
