Whats the difference between these 2 variable decleration?Dim doc As New System.Xml.XmlDocumentandDim doc As System.Xml.XmlDocumentI was trying to read data from a XML file. When code like below, load failed and went to catch directly, but when changed doc decleration to Dim doc As New System.Xml.XmlDocument, then it works fine... any explanation might help. ThanksDim doc As System.Xml.XmlDocumentTrydoc.Load("xmlfilename.xml")......Catch.....End Try

XmlDocument is an object and you must create a new instance (New) before you can use it. It errored because you were trying to use it as a static member.Look up Classes and the difference between static and non static members
