Why is the control inaccessible due to its protection level?

Question

I'm trying to access a control's text property from program.cs and it says that it is inaccessible due to protected level. How can I fix this please?

Answer 1

This is the default property for controls and can be solved by:

1. Going into Design-View for the Form that contains the specified Control
2. Then changing the Control's Modifiers property to Public or Internal.
