I have 2 forms. On form1 I have a button and on form2 I have a checkbox. When I press the button on form1 I want to check the checkbox on form2. Of course, assume that the checkbox form has already been shown. I am really stuck on this. Any ideas !

Hello.

It's up to the relationship between the 1st form and the 2nd one.
If the Form2 is model, you can use its Owner property. B4 moding Form2, u must set Form2.Owner. something like this:
Form2 form2 = new Form2();
Form2.Owner = this;
Form2.ShowDialog();
There are afew other ways, But the best one is it.

Create a public method on Form2 something like
public void SetCheckBoxChecked(bool value)
{
checkBox1.Checked = value;
}
In your Form1's button click call this method on Form2's instance by passing true as an argument.
