Public Variables in C#

[NeilV]

Hello,

I am a newbie to C# and i wich to be able to create a variable that can be used by several functions. For example, when the page is loaded I want to create a string that can be then used by different functions on the same page. Also, if possible I would like to make a function that makes a connection to a database and then other functions could use the connection. COuld this be done??

Hi NeilV

I don't know if this is what you are looking for - but take a look at Session Variables and see if that is what you want.

Hope you come right

Just make your variable declarations right under the class declaration, outside the scope of any function.

Right along side any other page level objects, such as textboxes, datagrids, and the like:

Private String myString;

And this myString var will be available to any and all methods/properties of that class. Same would be true for a connection.
