Hi Steven,

Your other form needs to have an object reference to the main form. You control the caption with the object reference.

loMainForm.lblMessage.Caption = "Whatever"

There are a number of ways to do that. You can pass the reference to the other form on instantiation and save it as a property of OtherForm. (If you do that be sure to set the property to NULL before you try to close either form.) You can use the _Screen.Forms collection. Or you can create a forms manager that has an object reference to each form and manages interaction between forms.
