declaring/ initializeing variable 2 ways

[KevinRug]

in one page, i am able to declare and initialize a variable like this, in
one line.

cmdPersonalInfo = new SqlCommand("get PersonalInfo", myG.sqlConnecti on);



In another page it gives me an error when doing as above and I must first
declare then initialize, like so:

SqlCommand cmdPersonalInfo ;

cmdPersonalInfo = new SqlCommand("get PersonalInfo", myG.sqlConnecti on);

Any ideas on why it behaves differently?

thanks for any help.

Re: declaring/ initializeing variable 2 ways

never mind,
I was too tired or frustrated to see the difference.
in one I was trying to use the variable without the type declaration in
front

cmdPersonalInfo = new SqlCommand("get PersonalInfo", myG.sqlConnecti on);
should be
SqlCommand cmdPersonalInfo = new SqlCommand("get PersonalInfo",
myG.sqlConnecti on);
