Hi,

I created a GUI which contain a few tabpage, I wish to add and name a new tabpage with a single button click. Therefore, I created two window form.

With the "add new operator" button, I link to the second form which allow user to key in the name of new tabpage. After that, the program will be able to add a new tabpage with the name typed by user.

I am able to create a new tabpage but cant get the text key in by user (second form). I already set the string to public but still unable to do this. Any fren can lend me a helping hand.....I really really need this in urgent....pls and thanks.

I attached my program too......pls lend me some help.....

Regards,

Adrian
