Hi all,

I am creating an Windows application.

I have 2 forms.

In First form I have two buttons. The Second Buttons Enabled property is set to False.

If the First button is clicked then Form 2 should be shown which I have done with the Coding.

In the second Form I have one button If this button is clicked then it should show first form and the second button of that form should be enabled (Enabled property to be set to TRUE).

Can anyone help me out in doing this task?

Please help me out.

Thanks in advance!!

You can use a static boolean somewhere that will store the button's state, which you can use within both forms.

Thanks for your reply.



I tried using it but it is not working out.

... From the lessons I've learned from Beautiful Code...
csharp

// this is internal -- its used so that we dont interfere with other people reading it.
private bool _hasClicked = false;
// this is so that other objects dont mess with our internal state.
public bool hasClicked { get { return _hasClicked; } }

// this gets called when our button is clicked. It sets _hasClicked to true.
void buttonClicked(object s, EventArgs ea)
{
  _hasClicked = true;
}


the "proper" way to do it.

Static bool's are not as useful as a ReadOnly property.

You may be wondering why I created a private boolean _hasClicked and a public boolean hasClicked with a "get" code block -- this is because we only want other objects to read or "get" the value (not "set" them). I'm from an era that uses '_' to state that the variable is private.

So Form1 spawns Form2? And Form1 wants to know when Form2 clicks a button?

Make the button on Form2 public. When Form1 creates Form2, Form1 hooks into the Clicked event of the button on Form2. When Form2 button is clicked, Form1 gets notified and reacts appropriately.
