Variable declaration

Hello,


It it true that variables declared in main form with Public statement

should be used with its form name in other succeeding forms or is there

any other way to call the Public variables just by name.


What about Global statement, Please help me.


Waiting for reply


Thanks in advance


Prashant.

Prashant,


Try putting your public variables in a module file. Global/Public arrays

can also be put in a module file.


Good Luck,

Terry

I don't think you can call without formname. I think it becomes kind of property of your form (class).

Hi


Since VB4, VB now treats all components as a Class - (except for Code modules).


You can create instances of Forms and access their properties just like a class module :


Dim mFrm As Form1


Set mFrm = New Form1


MsgBox mFrm.Width


or


With mFrm

MsgBox .Width

MsgBox .Height

End With


If you want to use a global variable - place it in a BAS module using 'Public' as the keyword. This can then be accessed from Forms/Classes/UserControls/Whatever in your project.
