    Exclamation Visual C++(CLR) How to add an item to a listbox from a different form

    So I am creating a windows app using windows forms in Visual C++, and I created this button in the main form (starting form) to open up a form called form 2. So to open this form I used form2's header to declare it and open it. From there form2 will load processes in a listbox and then u select a process you want from the list then click a button to add that selected item to another listbox in the starting form. But I have no idea on how to do it no matter what I do wether its forward declarations in other headers its just not working

    PLEASE SOMEONE HELP

    Thanks

    It would be helpful if you could post the code.
    All advice is offered in good faith only. All my code is tested (unless stated explicitly otherwise) with the latest version of Microsoft Visual Studio (using the supported features of the latest standard) and is offered as examples only - not as production quality. I cannot offer advice regarding any other c/c++ compiler/IDE or incompatibilities with VS.

    Your description is pretty vague and yes, it would be helpful to see your code. But you mention forward declarations, which may be a hint into the direction of a mutual inclusion problem. Regarding this, see, for instance, http://forums.codeguru.com/showthrea...is-not-working
    I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam; I looked into the soul of the boy sitting next to me.

    This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it's a symbol of my individuality, and my belief... in personal freedom.
