[vb.net] 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

This question is related to vb.net public-method object-reference

The answer is


Go to the Declaration of the desired object and mark it Shared.
