Declaring variables

Hi,

Q1.In vb.net how can you declare a variable that works for all foms in a project whithout having to declare it in every form?

Q2. Almost the same: All my forms work with data, and in every form I have to declare a dataset and do a dataset.readxml(..). Can I do this somewhere so that it is valid for all forms automatically?

Thanks in advance.

Hi
Q1 declare it has public

VB Code:

public a as string

Q2) Create a class that encapsulates all the functionalities you need.

Hi,

That's what Modules are for.

Declare the variables as public in a module and write the database coding in a public sub in the module.

Thank you folks!!
