I have much more experience helping newbies here, than you have, so let me decide myself what is more appropriate. If you have something to say, again say this to the poster, and do not direct it to my mailbox, or moveover make some baseless evaluation of my knowledge in your messages. I know who you are, and believe me my opinion about you is completely clear, and I still do not share this opinion when I talk with other people. I guess their opinions are similar to mine.

Also, you can pass parameter to the calling form. In more common case, when you have two modeless forms, you may force the second form (in some method) to look for the first one and call some method there, e.g.
