I created this for you... here is the button code:
Hope this helps:
Private Sub Button3_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As
System.EventArgs) Handles Button3.Click
Dim Lifts As New List(Of MyLifts)
Dim myds As New DataSet 'Temp Dataset for example purposes
'Putting data in
For nI As Integer = 1 To 5
Dim TempLifts As New MyLifts
TempLifts.LiftDataset = myds
TempLifts.LiftId = nI.ToString
Lifts.Add(TempLifts)
Next
'Retrieving data
For nI As Integer = 0 To (Lifts.Count - 1)
Dim LiftId As String = Lifts(nI).LiftId
Dim LiftDataset As DataSet = Lifts(nI).LiftDataset
Next
End Sub
and a class I created:
Public Class MyLifts
Private _LiftID As String
Private _LiftDataset As DataSet
Public Property LiftId() As String
Get
Return _LiftID
End Get
Set(ByVal value As String)
_LiftID = value
End Set
End Property
Public Property LiftDataset() As DataSet
Get
Return _LiftDataset
End Get
Set(ByVal value As DataSet)
_LiftDataset = value
End Set
End Property
End Class
