Add properties to the form to expose any values the client needs.

The form is launched from MATLAB. I do not believe it is possible for MATLAB
to instance my form and access public members. I cannot use a console
application, to my knowledge, because I need to handle messages.

The application sends keys and operates on the clipboard. Is there a way to
do this with a console application? The object I need to return is a string.
So, if I could use a console app. I could simply use writeline.

From what part of a form? You don't call a whole form - you call a
method on a form. Methods and properties have return values - objects
themselves don't.
