Visual Basic .NET Language Lists Create a List
Example
Lists can populated with any data type as necessary, with the format
Dim aList as New List(Of Type)
For example:
Create a new, empty list of Strings
Dim aList As New List(Of String)
Create a new list of strings, and populate with some data
VB.NET 2005/2008:
Dim aList as New List(Of String)(New String() {"one", "two", "three"})
VB.NET 2010:
Dim aList as New List(Of String) From {"one", "two", "three"}
--
VB.NET 2015:
Dim aList as New List(Of String)(New String() {"one", "two", "three"})
NOTE:
If you are receiving the following when the code is ran:
Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
Make sure you either declare as New i.e. Dim aList as New List(Of String) or if declaring without the New, make sure you set the list to a new list - Dim aList as List(Of String) = New List(Of String)
