can I use Imports with a VB2005 class namespace?

[Guest]

Hello,

I have a project (vb2005) and I added a class (a vb file) that resides in a
separate directory from the main project. Rather than instantiating objects
from this class to use its properties and methods, is it possible to use the
Imports keyword like in C# to import that class namespace?

How can this be done? or how can something equivalnet be done?

Thanks,
Rich

You can assign a namespace to the file using the 'Namespace' block. Then
you can import the namespace and instantiate/use the class. In addition you
can even import the class in order to be able to access its shared members
without qualification by the class name.

I think I figured this out. I gieve the added class a namespace name
(without including the project name as part of the namespace unlike C#).
Then when I type Imports in the main class I will see the project name in the
initial listing, I select the project name, then I see the class(es) I add to
the project.

Rich,

Did you look at the answer from Herfried, seems for me quiet the same.
The times of sending are equal, but I get the idea because that there is no
reply on Herfried answer that you did not even look at that. Knowing that
set you on a lower answering priority.
