Pretty standard question but after 2 years of learning Visual Basic, doing simple things is a lot more tricky in C#.

I've 2 forms - NameScreen and Table.

On the Form_Load of Table, i simply want to get the value that was entered into a TextBox on the NameScreen form.

I've made a the following method to get it from the NameScreen class.

string playerName;
playerName = txtPName.Text;

public string getPlayerName()
{
return playerName;
}

How would i access this method from the Form_Load of Table? Would i need to declare the variable as playerName as public also? Any help is much appreciated.

Your forms are variables, instances of classes. You can get access to a method of a variable by having the reference to it.
