passing several textbox.text between forms

[johmolan]

I use the code

Dim Selvk As New Selvkost2
        Selvk.PassedText = TextBox29.Text
                Selvk.Show()

in mainform and the code

Private _passedText As String
 
    Public Property [PassedText]() As String
        Get
            Return _passedText
        End Get
        Set(ByVal Value As String)
            _passedText = Value
        End Set
    End Property

in my second form and the text passes. but I need to pass values from 20 textboxes.
do I have to copy the code in my second form 20 times an declare passedtext2 and so on or is there an easier way to do this?

Depends on the purpose of the strings. If you're passing to set for example designed textboxes in other form there is already form fields for these that can be set directly.
If the strings have no special designation or meaning you can expose a single collection property that caller adds values to, or array property where caller passes all values in one go.

I have textboxes in my second form one for each of the passed values.
