I need to pass an integer value to another class. I define the integer
as

Public spb as integer
spb=10

(and it changes to other values)

and it passes to other subs within the main class ok but not into
other classes...why? I tries

Public shared but no difference.

Thanks

See if this example gets you started:

Class Foo
Public Shared bar As Integer = 3
Public baz As Integer = 4
End Class
Module Module1

Sub Main()

Console.Out.WriteLine(Foo.bar) ' shared field use
Console.Out.WriteLine((New Foo).baz) ' instance field use
Console.In.ReadLine()

End Sub

End Module

    End Sub

End Module

So I should call it Form1.spb

I remember now!

Personally, I think using static (shared) variables is a bad idea. I
would prefer to hand the integer to the method that requires it,
instead of tightly coupling the other classes to your Form.
