Declare the textbox as public in Form2. Or wrap the textbox property that
you want to access acorss the form as public. For example, to wrap the Text
property of the textbox as a property of Form2, have this in Form2:

public string TextBoxText
{
get {return TextBox1.Text;}
set {TextBox1.Text = value;}
}

Then from Form1,

Form2 x = new Form2();
x.TextBoxText = "My Text";

HTH.
