I'm getting the error ' ' is not declared.It may be inaccessible due to its protection level with the following code.
The error is given for these following:
txtFirstName
txtSurname
txtAccountNumber
txtAccountType
txtInvestment
txtInterestAmount

Imports System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
Public Class ClickSave
    Public Sub cmdSave_Click()
        Dim FILE_NAME As String = "F:\Investors.txt"
        Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtFirstName.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtSurname.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtAccountNumber.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtAccountType.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtInvestment.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtInterestAmount.Text)
        objWriter.Close()
        MsgBox("The file has been saved")
    End Sub
End Class

I tried changing from private sub to Public and adding Imports System.Windows.Forms.TextBox but that didn't fix my problem.

Any ideas on what I can do?

everything seems to be okay in this piece of code. Are those Textboxes in the same form where you have this code?

I put this code within a class, when its on the code for the form like this

 Public Sub cmdSave_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdSave.Click
        Dim FILE_NAME As String = "F:\Investors.txt"
        Dim objWriter As New System.IO.StreamWriter(FILE_NAME)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtFirstName.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtSurname.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtAccountNumber.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtAccountType.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtInvestment.Text)
        objWriter.WriteLine(txtInterestAmount.Text)
        objWriter.Close()
        MsgBox("The file has been saved")
    End Sub

it works fine, but in the class it gives me that error of not being declared/protection level

try appending the form name to the textboxes?

objWriter.WriteLine(frmName.txtFirstName.Text)

That did the trick, I appreciate the help nK0de
