>First form calls second form which also needs to use SCN, but it doesn't recognize SCN as being declared in 2nd form. What do I need to do differently for the 2nd form to 'see' the SCN variable?

Are you confusing the public member with a variable with global scope. 'Public' in the above means that SCN will be exposed as a property of a Signon instance. How are you trying to access it ?
