referring to other forms and controls
|
|
|
| Hello!
I am recently getting back into Delphi. I have lots of experience
with VB and Access so I could be  .
I have a problem when trying to assign values to controls on other
forms. It seems I can create a form and refer to it or it's controls,
but if I try to refer to a form that is already open, I get a memory
access violation.
For example, I can open form1 and then form2 and refer to form2
alright, but if I try to refer to form1 (or a control on it) I get a
memory access error.
How do I refer to controls (change the values/text of them) without
getting the violation error?
The application is MDI. I am using Delphi version 7.
Thanks!

access the another MDI child form?
