Q:

Reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference occurs when calling public sub

I have a Public Class "General" in which is a Public Sub "updateDynamics".  When I attempt to reference it in the code-behind for a page like so:
updateDynamics(get_prospect.dynamicsID)

I get the following error:

reference to a non-shared member requires an object reference

A:

You either have to make the method Shared or use an instance of the class General:
Dim gen = New General()
gen.updateDynamics(get_prospect.dynamicsID)

or
General.updateDynamics(get_prospect.dynamicsID)

Public Shared Sub updateDynamics(dynID As Int32)
    ' ... '
End Sub

Shared(VB.NET)
