Hello All,

In Login Form, I am saving username from usernametextbox.text to username variable.
I want this username variable to be accessible on any forms in the complete application.

For example, If i want to show the login user details on a form where I want to default that user1 has saved the data into the form, How do I do that?

Dear friend U can save the user information in any static/shared variable for this purpose like this

Public NotInheritable Class class1
Private Sub New()
End Sub
Public Shared username As String
End Class

I did But this is not passing the value into my second form on load When I am calling Class1.Username.

class must be NotInheritable(VB)/static(C#) for this purpose, then only it can save value
