This Example Lab project demonstrates how to pass on a textbox entry from one Form to the next while maintaining the ability to edit the value.
Explanation
This project works by taking the textbox output of the first Form and using it as the input for the textbox in the second Form. This allows for the textbox in the second Form to be populated with the input from the first Form and still be changeable. Then the output of the second Form uses the "change value" option to change the value of the original string stored from the textbox on the first Form. Therefore, if the data is changed inside the textbox on the second Form, the first input will be overridden with the second. If nothing is changed, it will still be overridden but with the same value.
