What you can do is start the console application from your WinForms code and redirect the standard output of the console to a stream you can read within the WinForms app.

Take a look at the code example here:

Solution 2

use Console.Out Link[^] property to send the output from console to a text file, then read the values from the text and show it on the textbox.

Solution 4

In addition to the responses you've already had, if you're wanting to combine Forms and Console then you may find my tip[^] useful. It does it the other way around (WinForm with Console attached) but if you read the comments you'll see it can be the other way too.

In the Button click event u write the code like

var thevalue = 'ur object'
Textbox1.text = thevalue.tostring;
