C# get string from textbox

I am just a noob in C#, and I've got this question to ask you.

I have here a form that asks for login details. It has two textfields:

  1. Username
  2. Password

What I want is to get the strings entered in that textfields.

I am not yet familiar with the methods in C#..(in java, getString method is used). What could be the "equivalent" method here in C#?

In C#, unlike java we do not have to use any method. TextBox property Text is used to get or set its text.

Get

string username = txtusername.Text;
string password = txtpassword.Text;

Set

txtusername.Text = "my_username";
txtpassword.Text = "12345";

The TextBox control has a Text property that you can use to get (or set) the text of the textbox.
