Here is some sample code, I would like the slider result to update the textbox field when it moves

privatevoid trackBar1_Scroll(object sender, EventArgs e) {  
    MessageBox.Show(trackBar1.Value.ToString());  
}

What I've tried gives the message, "Textbox.Text" cannot be used like a method.

What I have tried:

txtHeight.Text(trackBar1.Value.ToString());

You would assign a value to the Text property of the textbox e.g.

txtHeight.Text = trackBar1.Value.ToString();

Do it like this:

private void trackBar1_Scroll(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    textBox1.Text = trackBar1.Value.ToString();
}
