How to increase the name of a new form when opening a new child form

Question

How do you change the text in the Titlebar in Windows Forms?

When I open a new form I want it to say "Bob, the next time i click new and open a form it should say "Bob1" I tried to use TryParase() it to string and that wont work.

private void newToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        Form2 childform2 = new Form2();
        decimal childcount;
       childform2.MdiParent= this;
       string menuname;
       menuname = "untilted" + childcount.ToString();
        childform2.Text = menuname;
        childform2.Show();
        childcount++;

    }

You need to keep childcount around longer than just that method. Since you declare it inside the method, it will reset to 0 each time you run this code. Declare the variable outside of the method, so something like this:

int childcount=1;
private void newToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
   Form2 childform2 = new Form2();

   childform2.MdiParent= this;
   string menuname;
   menuname = "untilted" + childcount.ToString();
   childform2.Text = menuname;
   childform2.Show();
   childcount++;
}
