    You don't compile a Shared Project, it is compiled into the project that uses it, that is why you cannot add nuget packages to the shared project - they are added to the project that is using your shared code.

    The error messages exist for a reason, just because you are using a shared project doesn't mean any and all errors are automatically due to the existence of the shared project.
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    I googled that error and after reading about it, I guess I have found out how to fix it.
    I just changed
    Code:
            public int RunSqlReturnInt_Shared(SQLiteConnection conn, string sql, int AltValForNull = 0, int AltValForNoRec = 0)
            {
                  ......
            }
    To:
    Code:
            public static int RunSqlReturnInt_Shared(SQLiteConnection conn, string sql, int AltValForNull = 0, int AltValForNoRec = 0)
            {
                  ......
            }
    And now everything works fine.

    Just I need to make sure that I have done the right fix, because it is always possible that the problem may have gone away as a result of a change (a "bad fix") that is not the best way to fix the problem, and that as a result of the "bad fix", I may later experience some other unexpected problems.

    Have I fixed the problem the right way (by adding the word "static" before the name of the method)?
    Or, should I have fixed it in a different way?

    Please advise.
    Thanks.

    Why would you think this is possibly a bad fix? The error message told you that the method needed to be a static method, you made it a static method and the error went away.
