Ok this is probably the most basic question that you ever saw. How to declare value publicly (globally).
I want to declare time = 0
And I want my timer sub to know what time equals to How can I do this?
I know you can globally declare a structure so every class knows it.But I have a class named "WPNConnection", but I was wondering if you do like.Public WPN as new WPNConnection but so every class in the whole project could access it. It's just annoying having to raise events to get back to the class holding it, or finding the main class and finding it declared there.

I am trying to make a program that outputs a series of key presses into another window. I have been trying to do this with the SendKeys but have found that it it presses the key too quickly for the other application to be affected enough to cause much output. I need a way to globally press the key down and key it up over a period of time. If I know the code for pressing a key down and up globally I'll be able to link it up with a timer and work from there assuming the key codes are the same as SendKeys.
View 3 RepliesI'm adding some functionality to an app that was made a few years ago and I need to raise an event when the tabcontrol is clicked. However it would seem because the control was created publicy I can't add a handler to it? I never ran across this before. I stripped the code down to the bare essentials. As you can see in the image, if I Dim the control within the sub I can add the handler. But any handler created for the publicly created control fails.
Is there another way to create the hander in this case?
I have a connection string issue, sometimes when I change servers, I run into an issue of where My.Settings.Save doesnt save the changes sometimes. I created a text file when I change my connection string to see if it is saving the right information and it is, but sometimes my settings does not reflect the changes after calling my.settings.save.

this is probably something I should know, but I'm puzzled by this.I'm trying to create some objects and being able to access and modify these globally. I tried to create a Public Module and declare a few objects in this.I am able to access these from another sub, but I get an exception error when after building and runing the process and trying to modify these object. The same thing happens if I declare the object in the Public Class Form1. For example like this:
Public Class Form1
Public appWord = New Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Application
Public wordDoc as Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.Document

I've been building a simple card game in VB using VB 2010 express. I've built a simple Card class, as follows:
Public Class Card
Public Property Number As Integer
Public Property Suit As String
Public Property Image As String
End Class
I setup a base deck to create the unique, individual cards, which will then be used in multi-deck games. I have a game table form where the cards will be displayed. I declared this base deck inside the game table form and built it during the form's load event:
Public Class Main_Table
Public baseDeck As List(Of Card) = New List(Of Card)
Private Sub Main_Table_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load
Dim myCard As Card = New Card()
[Code] .....
Everything runs fine up until the end of Main_Table_Load. I've inspected the baseDeck values and they are correct. But when the Build_Deck_Click sub is invoked, the baseDeck collection's values become all the same, specifically it becomes composed of copies of the last card I built. I've stepped through the code and expanded baseDeck to confirm that all Cards become the same. I've tried moving the Public baseDeck As List(Of Card) = New List(Of Card) to a different module, with the same results. Since I will be using the baseDeck list through the app, I can't declare it privately inside the form_load event, as I'd have to re-create it every time I need to use it.
I'm trying to declare a array that I want to use in the module and in the forms. I like it to be usable all over but I cant get it to work.
I tried this code but when I want to use it in the module it says that it isn't declared.
Public Class Form1
Public ShuffleArray() As String
vb.net
Public Class UniQueGlobalConnector Public GlobalConnection As New OleDb.OleDbConnection Private Sub OpenConnection() Dim UniqueConnectionName As String = "GlobalConnection" & (Rnd(10)).ToString.Replace(".", "_") Dim InternalConnection As New OleDb.OleDbConnection GlobalConnection = InternalConnection

I have created a class (pasted below in case I did something wrong) for which I want to create an instance that is usable across forms/modules. I can create an instance of the class in a single form/module no problem via DIM User as New User but how do I go about create a public instance accessible from all parts of my program?

I have an issue with variables that are used to name For-Next loops. I have had this problem in a couple programs but not consistently, i.e. some variables work, some throw a warning (not an error).
The situation is this. I declare the variable along with all my declarations in a module-
Module MainModule
Public Counter1 As Integer
end Module 'MainModule
[Code]....
The type for variable 'Counter1' will not be inferred because it is bound to a field in an enclosing scope. Either change the name of 'Counter1', or use the fully qualified name (for example, 'Me.Counter1' or 'MyBase.Counter1'). In the past I've always broken down and changed the names to get rid of all those ugly warnings. Sometimes I have eliminated them from being declared in the module and declared them at call time. This is not how I program and I like to keep consistency throughout.
how I can get rid of this spotty, on-and-off nonsense? There is obviously a lot I don't understand about VS and I would have never taken it up but would have stopped 3 languages ago if I weren't forced into bulkier and bulkier languages (sorry about the rant. I feel OK now).
I have 416 different cards (8 decks) I dont want to spend too much time and declare each one. Is here way easy way to declare them without naming each one?
Like:
Dim card1, card2 , cand416 as integer
And
list.Add(card1)
list.Add(card2)
list.Add(card416)
I did this and it took me 4 ever:
'deck 1
'c
card1 = 2
card2 = 3
