assigning structure

[ayan]

halu,

i don't know if my subject gets the very title of what i wanted. hehe... i wanted to know about something like assigning structure... i encounter this in C... but this gives me error when i try to apply it in VB... code is like this...

typedef struct{
	char code[10],lastname[10],firstname[10],mi,address[10];
	int location;
	short status;
}salesman;

main(){
	salesman s={"01","lastname","firstname",'m',"address",1,1};
	printf("%d\n",s.name);
}

is that possible in VB? just want to clarify if vb.net offers this kind of assignment...

something like a structure receiving {data....}

thanx guys...

No not unless you specifically build a constructor with such parameters.

Public Structure MyTest
        Dim ID As Integer
        Dim Name As String
 
        Sub New(ByVal id As Integer, ByVal name As String)
            Me.ID = id
            Me.Name = name
        End Sub
 
    End Structure
 
        Dim ts As New MyTest(1, "Ed")
 
        MsgBox(ts.ID & " " & ts.Name)

You can only use that syntax {} with assigning items to an array in .net.

Dim sa As String() = {"Ed", "Mike", "Cookie"}
