I have a class named CheckVoucherRequest and within it, I have a function
declared thusly:
Public Overloads Shared Function RetrieveAllInfoForVoucherRequests(ByVal
areaID As Integer)

I'm trying to access info for the voucher requests by calling the function
as follows:
Dim gridSource As List(Of CheckVoucherRequest) =
CheckVoucherRequest.RetrieveAllInfoForVoucherRequests(areaID);
however, the compiler errors out by stating that:
'RetrieveAllInfoForVoucherRequests' is not a member of 'CheckVoucherRequest'.

If I select Class View from the menu, it very plainly shows the routine to
be a public member of CheckVoucherRequest.  What gives?  Why doesn't the
caller recognize it?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.

(And I'm fine with it being a VB.NET example, of course :)

Super!  Saves me the time of converting it to C# and hunting down all the

            areaID = currentUser.AreaId

            Dim keyNames As String() = {"ReceiptId"}

            Dim gridSource As List(Of CheckVoucherRequest) = _

What I'd really like to see is a version of the code which we can
compile and run ourselves. In other words, it shouldn't be code behind
for a web project (too much hassle to set up) - a simple console
project is easiest. It also shouldn't need to use any classes beyond
the ones shown in the code - after all, we don't need to *do* anything
with the code.

I'd start off by taking your existing business objects library (I'm
assuming it's in its own assembly?) and trying to call the method in
question from a console app. That should give you some more information
about where the problem lies.

One *possible* cause: I don't suppose you've got a property or other
member of your code-behind called CheckVoucherRequest, have you?
