Question

I know there are a lot of threads talking about this and believe me I\'ve seen all of them, but I think I\'m a little slow and cant figure out how to do this so here is the thin

Answer 1

I am also looking for answer, but i finally found out how to change the label of form1 from another class.

usually Form1.Designer.cs looks like this:

            this.label6.AutoSize = true;
        this.label6.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(59, 174);
        this.label6.Name = "label6";
        this.label6.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(72, 13);
        this.label6.TabIndex = 16;
        this.label6.Text = "Output String:";

Form1.Designer.cs Should look like this so you can call it on another class:

        label8 = new System.Windows.Forms.Label();

            label8.AutoSize = true;
        label8.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(219, 26);
        label8.Name = "label8";
        label8.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(35, 13);
        label8.TabIndex = 25;
        label8.Text = "label8";  

         // 
        // Form1
        // 
        this.Controls.Add(label8);

some "this." text except the part on "this.Controls.Add" in label8 at Form1.Designer.cs

And you should call it from the another class like this:

WindowsFormsApplication999.Form1.label8.Text = "your text here."; //This should modify label8.Text.

edit:

You should also modify this in Form1.Designer.cs

        private System.Windows.Forms.Label label8;

into this:

        public static System.Windows.Forms.Label label8;
