| Controls on other forms (3 replies) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade |
| How do you reference a control on another form within your application? Everytime I attempt to do this I receive the message, "This reference to a non shared member requires an object reference, and none is supplied." The help page for this message is blank. In VB6 you could use a statement such as: Sub Label1 Click() form2.label1.caption form1.label1.caption End Sub Thanks, Mark |

I guess it has "upgraded" them, and now can find them when it needs to reference them for the existing project. Will this be fixed in the final release so it autom... |

| intellisense (4 replies, VIP) |
| microsoft.public.dotnet.languages.vb.upgrade |
| I noticed that the intellisense in VS.NET isn't quite as good as the intellisense in the VB6 editor. For instance, if I press Ctrl J to popup the list, it doesn't select the nearest match based on the text in front of the cursor. Also, if I select a new entry, it doesn't replace the text in front of the cursor either. I have to delete it manually. That was a useful feature. Any reason why it was d... |
