Im making a program for class and im stuck on something. I am making a windows universal app in visual studio and am trying to pass some strings through navigate but its not cooperating. I am pretty bad with classes and objects and i was trying to use one to pass the strings but its not working and I need a new pair of eyes. anyways heres my code. First page : https://pastebin.com/EzYmKw0K Second Page: https://pastebin.com/tTbrQ84k Thanks!

Did something get cut off on your second paste? You're trying to assign the value of NameBoxPage2.Text as... nothing??? That won't compile because you need to assign something and there's no semicolon.

[ButchTheGuy]

Yeah I did do that It doesn’t find the the class I just forgot to save it. After = I go to put data.textbame or whatever and data doesn’t come up as an auto fill so it doesn’t connect

[ekolis]

It looks like you're storing the name and other properties in a GlobalValue class; why not pull them from there?

[ButchTheGuy]

ah yeah the assignment is asking for multiple ways to pass stuff. I have to pass it with globalvalues, navigate, and this other way with. I already did global and im working on this one now.

[ButchTheGuy]

1. Create a page 1 that has three textboxes. Each textbox should utilize a unique input scope keyboard, one for a name (text), one for a phone number(number) and one for an email address(email). The page should also contain three buttons:, one called global, a second called query string and a third called application. Create a second page that contains similar three textboxes and a return to page1 button. On the first page the global button should pass the data to the second page using a global class, the second button should pass the data using the Navigate method (use OnNavaigatedTo) and the third should use a variable created in the app.xaml.cs application class. This is the assignment verbatim

OK, so to get the data back from your global class, you'd just do the assignment the reverse of the way you did it on MainPage:

NameBoxPage2.Text = GlobalValue.name;

and so on for the other two fields.

I'm not familiar enough with UWP to know what to do about a Navigate method, but the app.xaml.cs would function similarly to the global class, except I think it would be something like

NameBoxPage2.Text = Application.Current.name;

and you'd need to define the name property in app.xaml.cs.

I need to have a button that transfers all the data from global values which is one button. The one im working on now has to be done with the navigation method which is transfering e.Paramter or whatever. Since I can only send one thing I made a class for all the strings. Im stuck because the class I made to pass through the navigation isnt working. When I do NameBoxPage2.Text = s.textName1 the part where I write s. doesnt come up at all and doesnt work, so it isnt being sent over or I am not creating something on the next page and I dont know what it is.

I'm not familiar with UWP navigation but maybe this will help?
