Hi Melson,

Is your form Webform (mostly we use webpage) or Winform?

Hi Melson,

First of all, you should have reference of form1 in form2.
You can pass form1 to form2 either by constructor or by a
write only public property.

Then secondly, you can create a public method, e.g.
SetEmployeeToDataGrid, in form1 that receives a parameter,
employeID, and inserts the employeID, with name and age,
into the datagrid (maybe from underlying datasource).

Thirdly, in form2's listbox selectedIndexChanged event,
you can call the method SetEmployeeToDataGrid and pass
listbox.Text as parameter.

HTH. If you still have questions, please let us know.

Hi Elton

I'm really appreciate your help. The hardest part is how to insert the
employeeID(with name and age) into the datagrid in Step 2. If you could show
me the code for Step 2, I can do the rest of the job. I'm new to vb.net, can
you help please. Thanks.
