    <p>For some unknown reasons this silly thing cant be implemented. </p> <p>I have an <code>int count</code> in the main form which I want to return to another class or form.</p> <pre><code>namespace my_speller { public partial class login : Form { public login() { InitializeComponent(); } int count; private void btnlogin_MouseUp(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) { dbaccess obj = new dbaccess(); for (int i = 0; i &lt; 10; i++) { if (txtusername.Text == obj.Usersusername()[i]) { count = i; break; } } } public int namecount() { return count; } } } </code></pre> <p><code>dbaccess</code> is another class and I could successfully call a function (Usersusername) defined in that class to my <code>login</code> form. Everything works fine up to this. Now I want to get the <code>int count</code> from main form back to <code>dbaccess</code> class. So I implemented a public function <code>namecount</code> to return <code>count</code>. But <code>count</code> is always zero in the other class. In the main form, I get the value of <code>count</code> correctly (which is <code>i</code>). But nothing gets returned when I call from <code>dbaccess</code> class this way:</p> <pre><code> login obj = new login(); // do stuff </code></pre> <p>or from another form in the same program, like this:</p> <pre><code>namespace my_speller { public partial class student : Form { public student() { InitializeComponent(); } private void button3_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { login obj = new login(); MessageBox.Show(obj.namecount().ToString()); } </code></pre> <p>The messagebox here should display <code>count</code> which is some number, but what's displayed is zero. What could possibly be the cause??</p> <p>The same thing happens when I'm trying to return a string from my main form. It's always null in other classes :(</p> <p>Thanks in advance</p> <p>Edit: Can you give the code snippet itself. I cant know the technical terms you might use to help me</p>

    1. COAlthough this isn't part of the question, I would suggest you capitalize the class names, as it adds unnecessary confusion- they look like variable names or functions at the moment.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
