I have been working on a VB app to edit an excel document. I want to keep my excel workbook in scope for the whole app.
For example here is how my program looks now
private sub
open workbook
end sub
private sub
reference workbook
end sub
I want a way to just call my workbook at the top and have all of my subs recognize it. I guess like a global variable or something.

Does VB.NET have any scope nesting operators like {} in C type languages? Example C++ type code:
int i;
i = 0;
{
int i;
i++;
}

how to declare scope for variables outside their class?

How can i increase the scope of these variables to be used in another class? I dont want to keep declaring them again and again.

I'm moving from VB6 to VB.net and there are a few things confusing. In vb.net, your program just automatically has a form, now the form in in a class and so it may or may not be there. In vb6, the main subroutine controls program flow and I don't see that in vb.net. However, my biggest problem is that I have a com dll that has a connect class with events. I need to be able to access these variable outside of that class. I don't understand how to do that. I can't seem to declare public withevents outside of the class and in the namespace so it can be shared with other code. Its say "not valid" in Namespace.
So what is the best way to do that. Do I create a set/get property for the class that holds this value? And, if I do that, is the connect class automatically instantiated as a part of the COM dll? Right now I don't instantiate the connect class, I assume the application does. But I'm not sure exactly how the property of the class would be set...perhaps I would need to call the property set from the on-connection method. Anybody know what the answer to these two questions are and this 3rd one? How can I have a variable that has "events" have scope across the entire project?

Dim Foo as New FooBar
Foo.Property = "Test"

In VB.net, does this create a new Foo instance every for every loop? Or just one Foo instance with block level scope? Do all blocks (If..EndIf, For..Next) work the same in this regard?
I am writing an App that automates file uploads from users desktops to a specified file server. On the first run of the app, I need the user to select a file server and save it for all other users of that PC. I thought I could do this
with application settings but it appears it is not suitable for this purpose. I need suggestions on how I can make this work.
I thought about a registry setting but the user may not have permission to edit the registry based on group policy/security settings.
I also thought about creating an XML file with the file server name that I can read from the installed project directory, but I was hoping there was a more streamlined way.
Below is example code of what I want to do:
Public Class Test
Sub New()
Dim cool As New B

I am porting php code to vbnet (i'm a little better at vbnet than c#). In the php is the scope resolution operator.
Here's the bit:
$args = phpZenfolio::processArgs( func_get_args() );
Equivalent in c#/vbnet?The whole function is the following which i gues is equivalent to the sub new in vbnet.
public function __construct()
{
$args = phpZenfolio::processArgs( func_get_args() );
$this->APIVer = ( array_key_exists( 'APIVer', $args ) ) ? $args['APIVer'] : '1.4';

I have a Function for checking the input in a textbox and only allowing Numeric & Backspace; everything works fine so far. My form is for financials and it has about 20 textboxes; they all receive Numeric only data; there is NO alpha data on the entire form required. Note in the snippet below that I don't even need a decimal point as well.
Is there a way to handle ALL textboxes on this form without having to place the Function call in each textbox KeyPress event. took a long (5 year) hiatus from developing VB6

I have a public variable which seems to be going out of scope. I am confused as it has been dimensioned as a public variable: Public xlCell as As Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel.Range
I originally had all my code in the same module in the same project and it was wrapped within a For/Next Loop (Example 1). I decided to clean up my code and make it more modular (Example 2). All the code is still in the same module in the same project.
Upon doing so, my public variable is not recognized in any of the private subs that I have created. I keep getting the following error: Message="Object reference not set to an instance of an object." When I test the variable using ?IsNothing(xlCell) in the Main Sub I get False in the main sub. this tells me te variable is recognized. However as soon as the Call SelectCaseSub() is triggered, I get a True value for ?IsNothing(xlCell). Why is this? Shouldn't this variable be in scope regardless?

I'm trying to create a simple media player that will scan a directory for certain filetypes, add them to a playlist then play a random playlist entry - changing every x seconds.I figured this would be simple in VB and, to an extent it was. I have the code running that chooses the directory and plays the random file.I just need to now make this repeat every 30 seconds or so.I have all the coded attached under the sub for the 'open' function of the player so it's quite flat. I think I need to use a timer here, to trigger the routine to pick and play the media every 30 seconds?In doing this I think I need to break the variables out of the function I currently have as they need to be shared between the timer loop function and the central 'creating file list' function.
I'm having trouble - I'm no coder (as you'll tell!) and although getting this far was easy I'm now (I think) bumping into threading / variable scope issues which are a bit of a brick wall.I've tried making the variables public / global by declaring in the class rather than the sub but I get errors at runtime. Presumably because of how I'm creating the windows media objects? [code]
where I should declare my variable when using forms and the scope in my test code.
In my code below I have declared variable x in my form1 which can be printed in form2.
But when I create a structure in form1, initialize an array of the type protorec and try to assign values to cards(1).firstname etc... I get a "declartion expected" error.
Why does it work for x but not for cards(x) my array of records?

plain how error handling scope works. What I mean by that is if I have a sub called ImportData and in there I have a for loop to go through a list of files and in the for loop I call another sub routine called CheckData. All have catch error in. If a sub has a catch error in where does it go from its call.
Private Sub ImportData
Dim iLoop as Int16

If I want to narrow scope of a variable in C#, I can introduce additional braces - i.e.:
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)[code].....
In the ide, I can no longer reference y outside of the scope introduced by the new braces. I would have thought that this would mean that the variable y would be available for garbage collection.(it is interesting to note that when viewing the compiled code using reflector it appears that there is no difference with or without the additional braces)Is there any way similar to this to narrow scope when using VB.net? Does this have any impact on when variables defined in the inner scope may be garbage collected?
I want to create a new instance of a class when I click on a button, but I need to interact with members of that class using other controls on the form, so I need the class to have a global scope. I know I could call the new class in formload, but the class creates certain variables that need to be current. If it is done on formload, the variables wouldn't be current, because if the class is created at formload, it would have different info at that time. Surely, there must be a way to create an instance of the myClass from within a sub that is accessible from other subs of the same class.

I've got an application that bi-directionally syncs with an SQL express 2008 server. right now, I've got a hardcoded sa user in my conection string, however one feature that was asked for was to audit every change made by end users into the database. To implement this, I've created a user login and password for each user that is going to use my app (8 of them) on my sql server, however I now need to change the connection string to include each users name in the string.
