I'm having a stupid problem with V.S./C#. I've created a class and two
subclasses, and I want to instantiate either of hte subclasses after users
make a selection. Then I want to use that class to modify its members as
users make more selections. IT'S NOT WORKING DAMN IT!
The following is my asp.net behind code for the web form, and then my class
code. I'm getting an error when I try to access the class instance that I
previously created. (yes, i've tried this different ways within my
application namespace)
