Below are Delphi enumerated type declarations.
What are the equivalents in VB .Net?

Type language = (EnglishUS, EnglishUK, Spanish, German, Italian, French);

Var language : (EnglishUS, EnglishUK, Spanish, German, Italian, French);
 
Hi Nobody,

I'm not exactloy sure what those two statements do.

I reckon the first is the enumeration:

Public Enum language
EnglishUS
EnglishUK
Spanish
German
Italian
French
End Enum

But I don't understand why the Var repeats the whole list.

Dim Var As language

In use:
Var = language.Italian

Regards,
Fergus

It doesn't, those were 2 ways of doing the same thing.

Where do I Define the Enum and Dim the Variable so that
it's global and usable from all procedures in all forms?
 
Hi Piddley,

All Modules are global.

Module Language_Stuff
Public Enum ....
End Enum

Public Var ..
End Module

Regards,
Fergus
