Dictionary Inconsistent Accesability

Question

I get an error in the code below on the first mention of the word tables. I need that dictionary to be usable by all classes.

the error reads:

Error 1 Inconsistent accessibility: field type 'System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary' is less accessible than field 'RiskRatingReevaluation.RiskRatingLogic.tables' C:\Users\jholland\Documents\Visual Studio 2012\Projects\RiskRatingReevaluation\RiskRatingReevaluation\RiskRatingLogic.cs 13 49 RiskRatingReevaluation

public static class RiskRatingLogic
{

    public static Dictionary<string, Table> tables;

    public static void Main()
    {

        tables = new Dictionary<string, Table>();
        ImportRegionIndexes(tables);

Any suggestions of what to change?

It sounds like your Table class is not public. The error is exactly as it sounds, one class is less accessible (public, internal, private, protected) than the one calling it

Take a look at the accessibility levels

As suggested by Justin Pihony Changing the class access modifier should solve the problem. I too was facing the same problem.
