Declaring Variables?

[JesusFreak]

How Can I declare a variable in a sub that all subs can use?

[Lethal]

You can create a class-level variable by declaring your variable outside of any methods, at the top of your class definition.

That won't work because I need to load the value of the variable from a file.

?? why not?
Just Declare the variable outside of all subs (at the top)

then set the variable when needed?


Dim X as integer

.
.
.
.

X = whatever from your file

[Lethal]

Initialize the variable in the constructor.

[LFJ]

Declare it as a module level variable, just below the Windows Form Designer generated code.

examples.

For a module or Class level variable:

Private msinNumOne as Single
Private mbln As Boolean
Private mdblTotal As Double

For Procedure Level Variables:

Dim psinNumOne as Single
Dim pbln As Boolean
Dim pdblTotal As Double

Hopefully, this helps you.
