Help with saving from a child form?
Hi Guys and Girls I am struggling with something that I think is supossed to be a simple and standard function of any application!
My App is being writen in C# using Visual Studio Community 2019.
it is at this point a 2 form aplication.
A main form (isMdiParent = true)
With 1 each menu and tool strips both with the standard items inserted.
A child form with a textbox with multi line = true.
(the child form is being set up so multiple instances can be opend for copy and paste functions and file comparing)
I am struggling with a simple save function.
(I have been able to do the save function in my single form without to much problem, but I am finding it dificult with my Mdi version of the application.)
I need to save the information in the textbox of the child form. doing so via the standard save items of the Parent form.
I will need help with the save, save as and a save all functions as well.
I will also need help with this so that when I close the application the files are saved when I close the application via the File/Exit menu item or closing the app via the standard close buttun at the top of the form.
I have the Using System IO inserted at the top of the code as normal, so I can use the Streamreader and StreamWriter functions.
How and what do I need to put in my code to make this work.
Please show the code for the Parent form and the Child form.
