CODE if VicApp.AltiumSelect.Checked = True Then ......... .......... this isnt working because when AltiumSelect is checked, it still returns false. can anyone tell me why i cannot call PanelDlg.AltiumSelect and must use VicApp.AltiumSelect instead? also why is it returning false even though the statement is true?

Another way to access it might be to fully qualify it using the namespace.class.variable though visibility will still come into play. If the two classes are within the same project/assembly then you could set the variable to protected friend rather than private.
