Question How to set and get a value from a class property within the main event of a module ?

[Michel_P]

Hi,
I started as a part-timer in my current job(vb.net developer - windows forms) 6 months ago and now I'm stuck with a major problem...
My boss gave me the project he was working on, my problem there is: the project uses a submain as startup object which is located in a module, thy so the application will be started in tray. Within the main() event i need to deserialize a xml file and with it set the properties of a class and then set what the application will do.
The problem is, after I deserialize it and put set the property values I try to get them in the same event(main) but when it gets the value it returns as nothing(if string) or 0(if integer) but in the debugging i saw it setting the values.
Is there a way to do that, within the main() event of a module to set the properties of a class and then get them without being nothing/0 ?

Sorry if there's any grammar error, I'm still improving my English.

If you set property values then , when you get those property values, you will get the values you set. That is an absolute. If you are getting Nothing and 0 then I would guess that you are actually getting the property values from a different object to the one you're setting them on. Perhaps you could show us some code and provide an explanation of what you expect to happen and what actually does happen.

Those are the code parts you might need to analyse the app
when i call the .carregar it should fill the config class but just after when i call the mconfig.TempoSincronizacao or the mconfig.sync it returns a different value(nothing/0) than the xml file values.
the problem is in the 1st part of the code
on every property of the class config
if i call it on timer.tick it have the right values but on main it seems like they've never been set
