<slapping self> I goofed and forgot to mention something from your first example...
frmTest is the name of the class (the type) and not a reference to the instance of the type.
Instead of:
frmTest.Text = "hello"
change it to
this.Text = “hello”
In C# the keyword ‘this’ refers to the class that the current code is executing within.

Thank you Brendan.
When do the following, I get the following error on the fine that contains frmTest.Text
private void fileListBox1_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e){
frmTest.Text = "hello";
}
