Currently using VB 2005, and with the following code :

If userDetails.ShowDialog(Me) = DialogResult.Cancel Then
Return True
End If

warning BC42025: Access of shared member, constant member, enum member or nested type through an instance; qualifying expression will not be evaluated, with the problem being DialogResult. Whilst the warning can be ignored, I would like to know how to check what button was pressed on the form, and it doesn't seem to like reading from DialogResult.

If you have a pre-version of VB.NET 2005 and not the latest release of it, it may be a bug. Otherwise, I don't know what to tell you. A possible solution would be to have an integer value instead of an enum value, becuase all enums are integer based.

Try something like:

If userDetails.ShowDialog(Me) = 0 Then
Return True
End If

I am not sure on the integer of each DialogResult enum item.

evaluate the dialog result after the showdialog() and define user details as friend at the form level

dim fMyForm as New frmWhateverMyFormNameIsInDesigner()
dim UDRet as WhateverType

fMyForm.ShowDialog

'//the user will do whatever to your friend var at that form

if fMyForm.DialogResult <> DialogResult.Cancel Then
'//UDRet=fMyForm value or similar here
'//even tho form is visually closed its not out of scope until this method is out of scope
End If

Ah right - I'll try that.

I'm using the released version of 2005, by the way.

Even with that, it didn't, so ended up having to use System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK

Its one of the many things I dont like about Visual Basic (apart from the fact that it exists) - a lot of things about it make no real sense.

VB6 was a lot less mean(ingless?) with that kind of thing. It didn't care whether you were using a 'shared' copy or an 'instance', it'd just do the job.

But VB.Net actually makes sense with error messages, and is really, really high-level. I remember the Beta version of vb 2k5, when you installed the MSDN one of the few 'chapters' in there was called 'Upgrading from Visual Studio 6'....

I just find that it all seems so long winded. The only reason for using it is because, Sage,in their infinite wisdom decided to drop C interfaces - and I'm not going to try to do it without support from Sage (which they won't give).
