Hi All

Does Anyone know how to make a variable public to all forms within the application.

Eg Public MyPath = "C:\" can do for one form but not all

If your Public declaration is on Form1, then call it like: [B]Form1.MyPath[/B] from any other Form.

Also, always set a Declaration Type when declaring something. In this case, "String" = Type.

Public MyPath As String = "C:\"

Another thing you could do is add a module to the project.

Module FilePathData
    Public MyPath as String = "C:\"
    'Some other stuff
End Module
