VB .NET newbie question

Hi all,

I've started developing an application using VB .NET 2003 for handheld PC (sewer inventarisation).

It has been a long time since i used VB (about 10 years) so i need some help.

I have a designed a few forms and some code for it.

However i'm having trouble with the following:

I've made a user data type (structure) and an array from this user data type. When I declare and use them in the form code it works fine but I want to declare the array and the 'current' data type globally. So i can use them in every form. How do I define them global ? Do I have to use a main module and load that first ??? if yes how ?

thx very much

you should look into classes and make a class instead of a UDT

10 years ? VERY VERY LONG TIME FOR COMPUTER THING ! !

You should buy a VB.Net book, ask questions here in the forum.

Why did I say that? very simple, it is easy to learn, especially that is it an OOP (Object Oriented Programming) language, and I think you will learn it easy.

To answer directly, simply add a module to your project, and declare the vars there.

To answer indirectly, go for a class, so you can encapsulate your functionality and make life easier for the sewer workers.

PS: Inventarisation isn't even a word!!!

Aah, see, dutch is too insignificant to count, even as a language :afrog:

No, I didn't really understand it, but I don't think its relevant anyways.

Just out of interest, what sort of work are you involved in? I ask because I'm an urban drainage engineer and I'm always on the look out for new tools/techniques/etc. :D
