Message: [QUOTE="Teemu Keiski, post: 1927083"] You pass them as arguments to the function (or take them in class constructor) since DataSet is a reference type. You can have the method like this (assuming static here, you could also have instantiated class in case usage is different) Public Class DoesSomething Public Shared Sub fillout(dsArgument As DataSet) 'Using dsArguments End Sub End Class when in the code-behind you'd just have Partial Public Class FM Inherits System.Web.UI.Page Public ds As New Data.DataSet... Protected Sub Page_Load(sender as Object, e As EventArgs) 'call the method with ds as argument DoesSomething.fillout(ds) End Sub End Class -- Teemu Keiski ASP.NET MVP, AspInsider Finland, EU [URL]http://blogs.aspadvice.com/joteke[/URL] [/QUOTE]
