Being new to NS and never having used VB I'm slowly learning to understand the 
messages that get kicked out. But this one, or lack of one, is quite confusing 
not to mention and very time consuming in finding the bug. I have the following 
in a program (leaving out some interveining code).

Dim ItemNbr,.....
....
ItemNbr = 1
....

MsgBox ItemNbr '<_ compiler complains here

The compiler complains "Object doesn't support this property or method" on the 
MsgBox line. After hours of thought and attempts to discover the problem I find 
that "ItemNbr" is also the name of a text box. I would have thought that the 
compiler should have complained about the "DIM ItemNbr" with a message like 
"attempt to redefine ItemNbr", but it did not and also did not complain about 
the assignment statement. What is it that I don't understand? Is it not 
possible to complain about the Dim statement or just an oversite of the 
compiler?

BTW how is all this crap creeping into the forum?
