Class cannot be indexed because it has no default property?

Question

I am new to classes, and I am new to Visual Basic in general, but I am working on a multi class program. The code seems to be correct, but I am trying on instantiate a class oject with the code:

BookEntry = BookEntry(txtISBN.Text, txtTitle.Text, txtAuthor.Text, Category)

Which has a contructor of:

 

    Sub New(ByVal ISBN As String, ByVal Title As String, ByVal Author As String, ByVal Category As String)

        MyBase.New()

        _ISBN = ISBN

        _Title = Title

        _Author = Author

        _Category = Category

    End Sub

I have no errors in my code (unless they are logical)  except I keep getting a Class <Classname> cannot be indexed because it has no default property error.

I have Option Strict on, and I have re-written both my construtor and instantiator code.

If anyone has any idea what this might be your help would be very greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

Variables must start with letters!

Answer 2

I have solved this, I just forgot the new keyword in my dim statement

Answer 3

Variables must start with letters!

You probably know this by now, but it's common practice to use underscores to start local private variables.
