please help: public variables between forms

Hai there,

I don't know how to declare a public varible in a standard VB from which I can see in other standard VB forms.

It seems not difficult but I'm stuck,

Please reply,
Chris

To access a Public variable in a Form from another form you have to use the name of the form to access that variable.

If you don't want to to this, then use a module.

Code:

---

  'in second form
  msgbox firstForm.VariableName

---

Put in the declarations section of your form:
Public MyVar as <Datatype>

and call it from other forms like
MyForm.MyVar

Better is though to add a code module to your project (.bas file) and put it in there, that way you don't have to put the formname before the var name.
