How do you create a new type?

[JohnVM]

In VB6 I think you could create a new custom type so you could do:

Public Type TYPENAME
.Parameter1 as String
.Parameter2 as String
.Parameter3 as String
End Type

When I try this in VB.NET it doesnt recognize that type of statement, how do you create a custom type in VB.NET?

The closest thing now is a structure:

Public Structure TYPENAME
 Public Parameter1 as String
 Public Parameter2 as String
 Public Parameter3 as String
End Structure
