Default Sending values from Popup to Parent window

Hi All !!

It seems everyone in this forum works on Web Applications and I haven't found anyone helping out with Windows Applications . That's a pity.

I am working on a Windows Application where I have a Parent Windows Form which opens a Popup Window with a button click. In the Popup window there is a Listbox where I can choose a value & click OK.

With the OK button click event I have written code which picks up values from database depending on the value selected from the Listbox. Now after closing the Popup window with the OK button the values picked from the databases have to populate the Texbox controls of the Parent Windows Form

The code I have written works but with a Hitch. Every time I close the Popup window a new Parent Window is opened with the Textbox Controls populated and the original Parent Window remains open without any controls populated.

I am putting the codes from both the forms here. Kindly let know where I might have gone wrong. Remember there is no problem in retrieving values from Popup.

Code for Parent Window :
Code:
 
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Data.OleDb;
using System.Web;

        }
        public frmQuizName(string strQid, string strQName)
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            this.txbQuizid.Text = strQid;
            this.txtQuizName.Text = strQName;
        }
        private void frmQuizName_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)

Well, you posted this in an ASP.NET forum, so it's no surprise people here work with Web Applications, You're better off picking a different category for Win Form related questions, like this one: http://p2p.wrox.com/other-net-463/

Cheers,
