Hi,
playing around i created a form that has a calendar and a textbox1.
I created another from that inherits from form1. on this second form I put
another textbox(textbox2). Now, on the second from when the value in the
form1.textbox1 changes, I want it to be displayed in textbox2 also. How is
this done?

On your second form,
textbox2.text = form1.textbox1.text should do the trick in any control
event you desire, however you may want to put this in textbox2's
textchanged event to equalise in every type attempt on textbox2.

Hope this helps,

I did that on the form load.... what I need I suppose is access to the event
handler for textbox1?

Me.TextBox2.Text = frmMain.TextBox1.Text

You can add event handler to call event, however you can equalise
textboxes in form_load as you've done. When do you want to equalise
two textboxes?
 
i was just wanting to test.. on form1 with the monthcalendar, I have the
date being put into textbox1... but I'd to see when the value on textbox1
changes it changes in textbox2 on form2.

ok, what event would i call in with the inherit form1.monthcalendar has been
changed and I want that date to show up on form2.textbox2?
 
oK... Create a even for textbox1 in form2.. and instead of
frmmain.textbox1.text I used textbox1.text......
I got to thinking that it must copy the controls over as well.. that is why
the default frist textbox I added was textbox2.
Thanks for the help

Ok, thought I had this but I don't... when i look at the form2(child) I get
errors about not being displayed.....
This should be simple, but I am not seeing it....
when I click on calendar1 from form1 and the textbox1 changes...... I want
to know how I can
set the text in textbox2 on the form2 and how do I read the value of
textbox1 or the calender value from form2...
Please help :)

Private Sub InitializeComponent() and found the delareration for textbox1
which was

Friend WithEvents TextBox1 As System.Windows.Forms.TextBox and change it
to
