How widely visible are various objects (shared class, module, etc) in VB.NET?

Each instance of your application, whether run by a single user or multiple, will see its own copy of Shared fields.

Shared values (or Static if you are a C#er) are only common to the App Domain.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
