TextBox Problems

[Travis]

Please excuse my ignorance but I am trying to take text from one text box
and display it in anohter like so:


SearchResults.Text = TextToSearchFor.ToString();

but I get back this display if I enter "test"


System.Windows.Forms.TextBox, Text: test


How do I get rid of the System.Windows portion and ONLY display the results
"test"

help

SearchResults.Text = TextToSearchFor.ToString();

try:
SearchResults.Text = TextToSearchFor.Text;

Your problem is that you are not using the Text property of the source text
box to assign the value to the target text box. i.e. you should have:

SearchResults.Text = TextToSearchFor.Text.


The ToString method "converts" the class to a string which is not what you
want.
