I have a folder watcher solution made up of several projects. How do I get to a variable (file name) from one project to another?
 
It much depends on what kind of projects you have. If you want to pass something between 2 processes (EXE application for example), you'll need to use on of those many interprocess communication methods (simplest being a file or registry entry). If you need to communicate between EXE and DLL, then you can simply use exported function calls to set or return the file name.
As said - it much depends on what you use and need.

------------------
When you do it, do it right.
 
I ended up passing it from function to function. Yes, I am old school programming.
 
This whole question doesn't make sense...

If you have a local variable that you need to pass to something else to make it do something, then that's what you do.



public double CalculateTax(double amt)
{
return (amt * 0.15);
}

public void ShowCost()
{
double cost = 10.99;
double tax = CalculateTax(cost);
}

How is this old skool?
