Using objects with secondary forms... Whats wrong here...

Feb 29 2008 10:50 PM
Hello...


I am trying to create a pop up save box for a program of mine...

Basically, I am calling a new form from the main form I have so:


public partial class Form1 : Form
    {

       
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
        }


Is the standard form I'm using that visual studio automatically creates.  Now when you click a button(button1 in this case), I want to call a new form(form2), here is the code:

private void SaveVariable_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
          

            form2 saveform = new form2();
            saveform.Show();
            saveform.Visible = true;
           
           
        }
    }

// below is a new class


    public class form2 : Form
    {

       
       
       
            //constructor
            public form2()
            {
            //initialize components
               Label label2 = new System.Windows.Forms.Label();
                label2.AutoSize = true; // this.label2.AutoSize = true;
                label2.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(55, 55);
                label2.Name = "label2";
                label2.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(39, 13);
                label2.TabIndex = 10;
                label2.Text = "Label2";
                label2.Visible = true;
            }


    }

 


However, when the program runs, while the new form object is created, no label box appears anywhere. What am I missing? I've tried using   this.label2.X  as well for all of the form2 variables but it doesn't change anything....
