how do i send an array value to another form?

[kunckle]

i am trying to send a array value to form 1 to form 2

this is what i did

FORM1:


Public X

Private Sub Form_Load()
x=array(1,2,3)
end sub




FORM2:


Public X

Private Sub Form_Load()
form2.X=form1.X
end sub


Private Sub Command1_Click()
Me.Print x
End Sub



it gives me a subscript out of range error (run time error 9)

am i doing it wrong? or is there another way to do it??

Do you want to pass just ONE value (as required), or the whole array?

[kunckle]

1 value at a time
but i need to finish passing all the values

[Bruce Fox]

One way would be to declare the Array() at Module level (ie placed in a Module) - giving it Public(Global) scope.
That way all the elements could be accessed from any Form.

Of course there are dissadvantages with this method!

Yeah! Yeah! Module use it and love it! If you want to send info back and forth to your gonna have to use it... luckily i have a half finished program of the module code here have fun


//Main Program!
intWorker = 5

If x = 0 Then
Call Storage(intgold, intlumber, intstone, intWorker, x) // <-- LOOK HERE
End If Calling module


//Module Being Called!
Public intlumber As Integer
Public intgold As Integer
Public intstone As Integer
Public intWorker As Integer

Public intLumberAddUp As Integer
Public intGoldAddUp As Integer
Public intStoneAddUp As Integer
Public intWorkerAddUp As Integer

Public intSBFarm As Integer
Public intSBHouse As Integer
Public intSBBarracks As Integer
Public intSBStonemine As Integer
Public intSBGoldmine As Integer
Public intSBTownhall As Integer

Public intBFarm As Integer
Public intBHouse As Integer
Public intBBarracks As Integer
Public intBStonemine As Integer
Public intBGoldmine As Integer
Public intBTownhall As Integer

Public intFarm As Integer
Public intHouse As Integer
Public intBarracks As Integer
Public intStoneMine As Integer
Public intGoldMine As Integer
Public intTownHall As Integer

Public Y As Integer
Public x As Integer

Option Explicit



Public Sub Storage(intgold, intlumber, intstone, intWorker, x As Integer)
If x = 0 Then ^
intgold = 500 |
intlumber = 750 |
intstone = 200 Sub being called LOOK HERE!
x = 1
End If
x = 1

intGoldAddUp = intgold
intLumberAddUp = intlumber
intStoneAddUp = intstone
intWorkerAddUp = intWorker
End Sub

Public Sub BuildingStorage(intBFarm, intBHouse, intBBarracks, intBStonemine, intBGoldmine, intBTownhall As Integer)
intSBFarm = intBFarm
intSBHouse = intBHouse
intSBBarracks = intBBarracks
intSBStonemine = intBStonemine
intSBGoldmine = intBGoldmine
intSBTownhall = intBTownhall
End Sub

Public Sub BuildingsBuilt()
If Y = 0 Then
intFarm = 1
intHouse = 1
intBarracks = 0
intStoneMine = 0
intGoldMine = 0
intTownHall = 1
Y = 1
End If

End Sub

If you want to send info back and forth to your gonna have to use it...

Thats not true......

Probably a better approach would be to use Get/Set Property on Form1!

(However, fo a few Public variables, I guess you can get by with the Module)

FORM2:
 
Public X
 
Private Sub Form_Load()
form2.X=form1.X
end sub
 
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Me.Print x(0)
End Sub

Note I have added (0)

thank you all for your help~! i used some of the methods above and solved the problem!
