This is my first posting. I copied these functions from a book and placed in the General Declarations section as shown, but I got this compile error: Compile error: Constants, fixed-length strings, arrays, user-defined types and Declare statements not allowed as Public members of object modules. Here are the functions: Declare Function OpenProcess Lib "kernel32" _ (ByVal dwDesiredAccess As Long, _ ByVal bInheritHandle As Long, _ ByVal dwProcessId As Long) As Long Declare Function GetExitCodeProcess Lib "kernel32" _ (ByVal hProcess As Long, _ lpExitCode As Long) As Long I am not sure how to fix this. I moved these Declarations inside the calling Sub, but then I got another compile error: Only comments may appear after End Sub, End Function, or End Property I am using Excel 2000 on Win2000 OS. If you have any ideas on what the problem might be, I would appreciate hearing them! Thanks.

It compiles file for me, just make sure it is above te very first sub in the module.

More: I have VB code with an excel sheet that has 200 lines of data on different individuals. Each individual's data will be remixed by the code and shunted into a Word template to produce http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19882691/creating-vb-array-that-is-public-within-class-module a report on the individual. I need to add another piece of code as below: I have created a class type MotivationBuckP and I want to create four objects of that class that contain string arrays of variable length. (there may be a way for me to code it with fixed length if this is easier) The arrays begin empty and will be filled depending on the particular individual's data. I'm using arrays because although there is a fixed amount of string content (18 titles and 18 longer bits of text), each individual will have them distributed differently across the four objects (think of each individual as a 18-gallon barrel poured into four buckets) I understand that in the Class Module I need to declare all the variables as Public, eg: Public MotivID As Integer Public MotivQuant As Integer Public strMotivatorTitle() As String Public strMotivatorDescriptor() As String But in response to the presence of the last 2 variables, running gives me the error: Compile error: Constants, fixed-level strings, arrays, user-defined types and Declare statements are not allowed as Public members of object modules Due to the constraints of existing code I need to create and use the strMotivatorTitle and strMotivatorDescriptor variables in multiple modules. But I un

DLL procedures declared in anyother type of module are private to that compile error module, and you must identify themas such by preceding the declaration with the Private keyword. Hence Private Declare Function apiFindWindow Lib "User32" Alias "FindWindowA" _ (ByVal lpclassname As Any, ByVal lpCaption As Any) As Long Should solve the problem Posted by Shasur M at 5:09 PM 3 comments: Anonymous7:01 AMThis fixed an issue for me on copying to clipboard.ReplyDeleteAnonymous7:58 PMBut it's not private, it's public. And I get the same message.ReplyDeleteAnonymous10:25 PMThis compile error constants fixed an issue. Thank youReplyDeleteAdd commentLoad more...
