Hello
I'm starting to use visual c + +, is a bit of programming
in c and c + + but not Visual C + + and I need help to convert
a "textbox" to a variable that can be used elsewhere.

 #pragma endregion
	private: System::Void button1_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
				 Decimal Cant1;
			     Canti1 = Decimal::Parse(textBox1->Text);
				 //Erase textbox
				 textBox1->Text = L"0";
			 }
	private: System::Void button2_Click(System::Object^  sender, System::EventArgs^  e) {
			           Decimal Cant2;
			     Cant2 = Decimal::Parse(textBox1->Text);
                                 // I want to use Here Cant1 And Cant2
				 textBox1->Text = cant1 + cant2;

			 }
	};
}

Thanks for Help

You are having some scoping issues.

In button1_click you define the Cant1 variable, however because you define the variable inside the method itself, it's scope is limited to just that method (you can't access it anywhere else).

You either want to define cant1 outside the method so you are able to use it elsewhere, or probably in this case just move the Decimal::Parse into button2_click.

Also the large coloured text will not make us answer any quicker. Plain black is fine.

keep learning =D
