View 3 RepliesI have an issue with an app i am writing, i need to make a variable accessible to any module or class within the project but that cant be accessed outside of the app as it is accessing info the end user shouldn't have access to.
Ok, well a practice i have gotten into in the last few years is to declare a module on the same page as the main form and declare variables either friend or public (global variables). with my app public is not good so i tried Protected Friend but i cant use this within a module.
I tried placing it at the top of the main form but one of my classes can't access it, what would be the right way to do as expected. besides the main form i have 2 classes call them class1 and class2:- main interacts with both classes class1 accesses class2 class2 doesn't access class1

View 4 RepliesI have a VBA form in Microstation I am using to try and help automate a task. The only problem I am having is I am reading a textbox (Filebox.Text) and setting it as the variable (FN). It works, because I used Msg.Box (FN) to test it. However, in two of the lines of code, I am trying to use (FN) to pass the typed in filename to the command to run in Microstation. Unfortunently, it gets passed on as (FN).dgn instead of the actual filenale typed into the textbox. Is there a way I can make the variable actually seen as a variable? Code on Pastebin: url....Also, not sure if this is the right section, 100% new to VBA, coming from a world Bashed together.

I have a problem with my program. I wanted to know how i can make a global variable like an integer be recognised in any form so in essence linking to two forms together. Also how do I store an integer that has been typed by the user into the textbox? This integer will then be stored in the global variable. I have got two forms, one is for the user to interact with and the other is going to be used for displaying the global variable.

I'm just taking over an asp.net/vb site, and I'm definitely still learning. I'm receiving the following error:

I have a RadioButtonList control which triggers a Sub LegalGaps on SelectedItemChanged event. This Sub creates and fills in an array the size of which depends on the User's choice of radiobutton options. The second Sub AvailableDays shall be able to read that array and highlight the days in the Calendar control accordingly on DayRender event. May I somehow declare an internally created variable a public one?

It ran without any error but when I opened SSMS, I could not see my file attached to the server. Also, I tried to make a connection, but it says file does not exist but when I tried to re-run the above code, it says File already exists.Something wrong with my way of doing it? I want to see it attached with the instance of my SQL Server Express 2005, using SSMS.
In general, according to the OOP paradigm, my understanding of encapsulation basically says:
-If a member is private, it can only be accessed by the class.
-If a member is protected, it can only be accessed by the base class and any derived classes.
-If a member is public, it can be accessed by anyone.
If I have a nested class, can I declare a property to be accessible only to that class and the parent class it's nested within? For example:[code]In the example, I cannot directly access myNestedObject.myInt or myNestedObject.myDbl from an instance of ContainerClass if those members are Private or Protected. But suppose I don't want to make them Public,because then they are TOO exposed: they can be altered from anywhere, not just within a Container Class object. Declaring them Friend would still be too weak as that would allow them to be altered from anywhere within the application.
Each business object has a matching object that contains sql calls. I'd like to restrict these sql objects in a way where they can only be used by the matching business object. How can this be achieved?
Update Greg brought up the point about testability. Since the SqlObjects will contain very business-process specific sql I don't want them reused in multiple buiness objects. (Basic CRUD operations are all code-generated) Is there a way to make the SqlObjects accessible to only one business object in the business assembly (like yshuditelu and Greg Beech showed) AND expose the SqlObjects to the unit testing assembly?

When I declare a variable as public, shouldn't it be available in another form? I am trying to write a windows mobile prg with 12 static mileage points, form1 has the 12 buttons for start point, but when I call form2 with the destination points, my start variable value is not carried over.

View 1 RepliesI have one form, which the user enters upto 5 websites then clicks go - I have on the second form, the one with the webbrowser. A timer which checks if the web browser is busy then either a green light or black image will be shown along side the assocaited input box on the first form.I am finding it impossible to feed variables into the clock through ByVal, like I would a subroutine or function.
Private Sub ActiveMe_Tick(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles ActiveMe.Tick
If ((WebBrowser1.IsBusy)) Then
Hey.BackColor = Color.Black[code]....
'Error message says Hey is not declared, as i can't pass it through to timer
The variable Hey is determined by the first form - Which picturebox.I have an if statement which simply says if inputbox one has url enter then Hey = Picturebox1, If input box2 has url entered then Hey= Picturebox2 etc.What I want is the timer to check the page has completed loading or is still loading or refresing and the appropriate green or black to be shown aside url input box on first form.I considered using a sub or procedure to act as a clock (a large for loop with another for loop within it, acting as a delay). But found this slowed down theapp to the point of crashing it.

I have a label in my Form which on loading, displays the contents of a text file. The contents of the text file may change and if so, the number of lines also will. I would like the Form to automatically resize itself based on the number of lines in the file. If there are more lines that the size of the label can take, I would like it to either resize or show scroll bars.
View 2 RepliesMy app has a group of forms that do a specific work in different ways. I want to create a new variable of a form when I want with its name. So, I want a Function in this form :
Public Function GetNew (byref f as form ) as form
That give a form name and return a variable of that type. In other words, it must work as "dim f1 as new formx".
