Perhaps I wasn't very clear. Project 1 (VB) defines Class1
Project 2 (C#) defines a class Class2 with a method "takeClass1Arg(Class1 c1Arg)" Project 3 (VB) defines a class Class3 with a method "takeClass1Arg(c1Arg as Class1)" Project 4 (VB) can call the method in Project 3 with no problem Project 4 (VB) can NOT call the method in Project 2 Obviously, Project 4 must have a valid reference to Class1 in order to call the takeClass1Arg() in Project 3. (e.g. "myClass3Obj.takesClass1Arg(xxx)") But when given the call "myClass2Obj.takesClass1Arg(xxx)" [note I'm passing the same variable of the same type (Class1)] I get the error message telling me that I must add a reference to Class1 to Project 4. - Michael At 03:01 PM 5/13/2002 +0100, you wrote: > > C# is defining the function, having an argument of the VB > > class type.
