tks, bt i think i'm just in the right frame of mind to grasp where to include it...The namespace GymManager is already defined in Form1's header, and within it there is the

public ref class Form1 : public System::Windows::Forms::Form

details and so it is for all the other forms. So with what I understand from ur explaination the class within the namespace should be called without problems if only it is within the namespace.

I'm there is similar concept in Java.

interfaces or abstract classes are there yes, and are similarly defined and used. but I cant get ma head around this. tks anyway.

tks for ur reply. bt i'm still lost if u know wat i mean, If u can provide a sample code of how to use wat u r talking about it would be very helpful... I dont know where exactly in Form1's definition i would need to put the namespace (besides I'm new to this managed c++ stuff - work better with Java) Tks for ur help once again.

tks for ur help. bt I tried using something like below (without the GymManager namespace) and it still provded an error that said "undeclared identifier Form1" alternative code tried: ----------------------- Form1 ^login= gcnew Form1(); login->Show();

Hi to all, I'm new to vc++ and I've read a bit on how to create a new form and load it (make it appear on screen). But i have this code and its corresponding error and would be glad if someone could point me in the right direction. There's three forms, Form1 (login form) and gymMain a main interface. So what I tried to do is first load the application with gymMain and make its Visible state FALSE, next load Form1 (login) and upon confirmation of input, close Form1 and make gymMain visible. Now I try this with the below code and the erorr is shown below.

Hi again...The code is below and i hope it helps clarify my enquiry.I'm new to C++ and all help and suggestions are much appreciated. *******************code for contact list******************** #include #include using namespace std; class BasicAd{ protected: string name; string home_address; public: void BasicAd::setValues(string n, string h){ name = n; home_address = h; }; void BasicAd::getValues(){ cout<<"name : "<>choice; if(choice==1){ cout<<"\nEnter number of items for clubDir: "; cin>>size; for(int i=0; i>name; cout<<"home address: "; cin>>ha; cout<<"member name: "; cin>>mn; cout<<"date joined:"; cin>>dj; cout<<"\n"; club[i].setValues(name, ha, mn, dj); }; cout<<"\nThe Contact Details addded...."; } else if(choice==2){ cout<<"\nEnter number of items for clientDir: "; cin>>size; for(

:confused:Hi, I'd need some help with my commandline application. Its basically a contact list application which allows user to choose to add two types of contacts (club and client). I wrote the classes for these two. So when the choice is made, a function ADD() is invoked which creates this arrays of type club or client. The problem is as these object arrays are created within the ADD() function, they have only a local scope so I tried referencing its values so that in the end, the main() function can have have access to them. But unfortunately the message from the compiler is "referencing an array...." Is it possible to reference an array so that its scope becomes virtualy global? If not, what other ways can a variable object within a function be accessed easily by other functions?

Hi ya'all, I'm sure this might be a very easy and simple thing but I would like to find out how to package my project application so it can run without the developing environment; yes, just want to make it executable. Any pointers will be appreciated. Regards...

Hi y'all, I hav created a database MyBBN in SQL server (inbuilt in VC++ 7 using server explorer) with a dataset say BBN and i want to use a column (username) within a table in this dataset as a verifier on a log-on form. How can i connect to the database or the dataset for that matter? and how do i check the inputed username from a user against the one in the table.? if sample coding could be provided, it would help a lot. As i mentioned earlier its a managed App in Windows Forms.Net Thanks for all help in advance... regards

Hi, regarding an earlier post, suggestions were given as to how to display Locale current time(by using the GetLocalTime n GetCurrentTime). It did work in a single form (managed Application). My problem now is as I tuned the code and used it in my intended managed Application, i have 4 errors and 4 warnings which I understand is as a result of an ambiguity in an ObjectData; the ATLCom.h header and some other header (apparently in the managed App) are conflicting....fine. So how can one go about displaying the date and time in a managed App (windows forms .net App)? Please Help y'all. Regards....
