Return User Type from a property

[JackDaniels256]

Does anybody know how to return a User Type from a property such as:


Public Property Get MyType() as [User Type in question]
MyType = [user type]
End Property


VB is giving an error for that!

The user Type is declared in a standard module and used in a class module.

Thanks in advance!

Include you type in class module. Be aware that this is only possible with ActiveX DLL project type.

option Explicit

public Type MyType
x as Long
y as Long
End Type

private t as MyType

public property get GetMyType() as MyType
GetMyType = t
End property




Next question!

That's what I needed to know, thanks!

It should be possible also in activex exe project. The limitation is: a public creatable class (look for innstancing property of the class).
Once you have defined your user defined type in a class, you zhould be able to pass it to functions or subs in forms, bas, dll,..., module, provided that you declared instances of it with the
(private/public) myHereType as myclass.myType formula
