you can pass the data in the constructor of Form2 (if some action in form1 opens form2) you could also have a public property in form2 that you can set from wherever the form is being shown

Its probably easier to just pass a reference of the form itself to the other form

how do you create your Form2 instance? and where
nichtfamedominik
i created form 2 via project direcly and via a button Form1 closes and form2 opens this.Hide(); Form2 form2 = new Form2(); form2.ShowDialog(); this.Close(); like this

okay change the second line to Form2 form2 = new Form2(this); and update the form2 constructor to match you now have a reference to form1 in form2

well, you can now access things from form1 in form2 via that reference so you'd make a public property that exposes the data you need from form1, then just access that in form2

so in a TextChanged Event i write "Form2.Label4.Text = StreckeValue.Text"?

I don't know what your code looks like my dude, I have no idea
public class Form1
{
private Textbox _textBox1 = new();

public string TextBox1Value => _textBox1.Value;
}

public class Form2
{
private readonly Form1 _form1;

private Label _label1 = new();

public Form2(Form1 form1)
{
_form1 = form1;
}

public void Whatever()
{
_label1.Text = _form1.TextBox1Value;
}
}
public class Form1
{
private Textbox _textBox1 = new();

public string TextBox1Value => _textBox1.Value;
}

public class Form2
{
private readonly Form1 _form1;

private Label _label1 = new();

public Form2(Form1 form1)
{
_form1 = form1;
}

public void Whatever()
{
_label1.Text = _form1.TextBox1Value;
}
}
something like this.
