Byte is not a member of Integer

Public Shared adc_value As word_byte
Public Class byte_low_hi
Public low_byte As Byte
Public high_byte As Byte
End Class

pmsg(2) = CChar(adc_value.word16.high_byte)

I get the following error "high_byte is not a member of Integer" How
can i fix this

[Patrice]

What is word16 ? Is it an integer rather than a byte_low_hi ?

Well, there you go:

word16 is an Integer (4 bytes) rather than just a byte. You need to
cast it to the correct type.

How do i cast it to the correct type?

It depends on what you want to do. You are trying to access a member that
does not exist. As the message says, "high_byte is not a member of Integer",
so you can not access it. Anyway it's confusing because word16 pretends to
be a 16-Bit integer, but it is declared as a 32 bit integer (Integer is
synonym for Int32), so either I would rename it to word32 or declare it as
Int16 (synonym for Short).

If i were to include all the code and give you a little bakground as
to what i wnat to do would you be able to help?

cmdolcet69,

It looks like you need to take a programming course and/or a Visual Basic
course.

Im a little confused with the data type structure, This would be the
first time i have ever implemented into a micro. My other skills are
strong.

So word16 is an integer. high_byte is a member of byte_low_hi. So
word16.high_byte is something that doesn't exists.

I'm not sure how you would like to approach this :
- you could declare word16 as an integer (or short for a 16 bit value ???)
and extract the parts as needed
- you could declare word16 as a byte_low_hi and compute the corresponding 16
bit value as needed
- you could perhaps even declare a union (that is two structure that shares
the same underlying memroy area to access this a 16 bit value or as two
bytes depending on your needs; not remember to have tried this with .NET)

Another option would be to explain what you are trying to do in case somone
would suggest another simpler approach.

Just do this then if your running out of time:

msg(2) = CChar(Convert.ToByte(adc_value.word16))
