    Sorry for the vague question..
    I think your reply just answers my question( Structure instead of class)..
    Thanks guys!

  • Tinamus

    Thanks.So it is ok for me to declare my structure inside a module then right

  • Ricky A Jones

    First of all - do you really know what a class is First you say "is it ok for me to define a class", then you say "I don't want to create another class"...

    A class is a class regardless of where it is defined.

    And, as stated in another reply, a class with only properties and no methods could (should ) be implemented as a struct ("Type") instead.

    You'd want to create a struct then if all you want are a bunch of properties/variables.  Furthermore, you can combine classes into one .cs/.vb file to maintain a more concise file base.

    I'm not 100% sure.  I use c#, and I don't really have modules to work with.  I do know that it's considered bad form though.  I'd suggest just making it in another file. Modules are used mainly for globally used functions and variables.  It's a bit out of place.
