Sorry about the code being hard to read, but I can assure you that it
did not look like that when I copied and pasted the message. I'm a
hardware engineer
who has only been using c# for a couple weeks now and must admit that
its been a long time since I've done any OO programming. But, all I want
to do is when the "Get Curves" button is clicked, for the event handler
to call the initializeIgnComm grabbing int[,] curveArray from my
CurveData class, and then use that data to plot. Thats all I want this
event handler to do. Get data, then plot it. Before messing with
delegates and event handlers and all
that this how I had my code. Of course I got the overloading error.
Ultimately the issue I am having is getting/passing the curveArray data
to the event handler.
