C# 2.0

How can i update my progress bar on Form1, from Form2? Form 2 contains a
button that is supposed to update the progressbar on Form1 by 5 in value.
I can't find out how to do this, please help me with some code samples :)

Thanks!

A winforms application is single threaded. So if you want to alter a
control on Form1 from Form2, you should call a method of Form1 from
Form2 (e.g. inside the eventhandler of the button) and that method of
Form1 then alters the progress bar.

So calling an event is easy... Put how would you do something like (from
form 1) form2.label.text = "data from form 1"
