I find in other team member's project, they are referencing a type in
following format
"
public static global::ErrorRe port.Descriptio n Description
= new global::ErrorRe port.Descriptio n();
"
I do not understand the usage of "global" here, could anyone please
clarify its usage and what benift of using that. Thanks in advance.

In C#, you can have namespaces and classes which share a name as well as
have nested namespaces/classes which have are shared, causing ambiguity.
Using "global::" indicates that the namespace after it will be processed
from the root level, not using the immediate namespace/class scope for
resolution.

See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/lib...3d(VS.80).aspx. You
will often see the global:: qualifier in generated code to ensure that
it is refering to the correct types. I don't think I've ever since it
used manually - it's rarely necessary. It's unclear from your example
whether it is actually needed or not. It depends whether there are
more than one ErrorReport types.

Kent

Is there a difference between
that and the kind of class you can create in C++ or VB.NET?
The VB language supports classes at the global scope; but the VB.NET IDE
does not; you must specific a default namespace for a project in which all
classes and namespaces will be nested. I don't know what the global scope
resolution operator/keyword is in VB...
In C++/CLI you can also have managed classes at global scope. In C++ the
global scope resolution operator is '::', the equivalent of 'global::'. But,
often Intellisense gets confused with that...

You don't have to specify one, you can leave it blank.

I have a question regarding the use of a qualifier word "Global". I cannot

"Global" seems to be recognised by Access in at least three cases:-
1) "Global Const". Recently someone in this group helped me resolve a

I saw in a recent post the :: operator used to reach the global namespace, as
in
global::MyNamespace
I hadn't seen this before, so looked it up in MSDN, which explained it
nicely. My question is, do "global" and "::" always go together? Is there any
other use for these operators, than as a pair?
