If you wont your controls to be public, use Properties instead.
(I think it is not a good idea to make public controls)

In your form:

PROPERTY myText as String

' then two functions will be created automagically:

PRIVATE SUB myText_Write(value as String)
    textarea.Text = value
END

PRIVATE FUNCTION myText_Read() as String
    RETURN textArea.Text
END


Then you could call your property from within a module or another class


MyForm.myText = whatevertext

'or

whatsmytext = MyForm.myText


Hope this helps
