How to Pass Enum values in and out of a usercontrol?

[joshuaand]

Hi,

I have been creating a usercontrol for a while now and had a form inside the project that I was testing it with, passing Enum values in and out of Properties and Functions and it worked great, but when I compiled my control into a dll and attached it to my real project, the enum's no longer seem to be passed correctly.

Here are the problems I am having:

'My control is called: ComPortControl

'Stuff Declared in the CONTROL
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Private theTranslationMode As Translation


Public Enum Translation
None
Sony_422
TC_Server_Box
End Enum

Public Property TranslationMode() As Translation
Get
Return theTranslationMode
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Translation)
theTranslationMode = Value
End Set
End Property

'End control Declarations
''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Ok so when the control is created it sets a default value for the properties, as such (only 1 listed):

Me.ComPortControl.TranslationMode = comPortControl.Translation.None

'So it sets the default value to the first value of the enum.

This however produces an error:
'Translation' is not a member of 'comPortControl.comPortControl'.

How do I stop this from happening??

Any help is appreciated.

Thankyou
Joshua

Try comPortControl.comPortControl.Whatever
Namespace.Class.Method

Hi,

my problem was that I was renaming "ComPortControl1" to "ComPortControl", which was the problem, when I renamed it to "myComPortControl" it was all good.

Thanks for your help.

Thanks
