I've tried searching... a lot for the answer, but as I'm not too sure what exactly I'm trying to do I can't seem to find anything.
I'm trying to write a dll in order to handle errors thrown from a vb.net app. In the dll I need several forms (I'm not totally sure if they can have forms - I'm a bit of a newbie when it comes to dll's) for which the user can type in their message about the error and submit it.
I need to be able to pass strings to the form and for the form to be able to access public subs in the class file.
For instance I have a public sub called Emailer, which I want, when the submit button is clicked from the form to be run.
Or, lets say I have a public string:
Public strName as string = nothing
why cant I, from the class file just do this:
frmFormName.strName = "abc"
Not sure if I've explained that very well, but like I said I'm a bit of a newbie with this stuff.
1) You can have froms in a DLL it just does not have a entry point you will need a exe for this this. Which it sounds like you have
2) You will need to add a project reference to a dll from your exe
ok not sure how this will work but try to download this Example project let me know if you have more questions
