VB Programmer in the same way as in the the other VB.Net versions.

By instance global to a class by to declare it private outside a method.

I hope this helps,

the easiest way would be to use a module with a public / friend scoped
declaration
( i would prefer Friend )

please note that you should avoid global scoped variabels

a better aproach would be to encapsulate your logic in a singleton like
base class
that passes all required parameters to its co classes .

you might also investigate the shared keyword
