Paul,

I take it that your "Global" DataProvider class is based on an example from the DNN MVC template, which I haven't used, so I won't comment on that. In any case the Instance() method is analogous to the one in the normal PA module template.

However, I don't get your "Calling" DataProvider. Do you want that to be able to access methods on the Global DataProvider? If so, all you need to do is add a reference to the Global assembly, and create an instance of the concrete dataprovider, like this:

DataProvider dataProvider = DataProvider.Instance();

With that object you can access all the data provider methods.

Alternatively, maybe I haven't understood your code / intention properly.

Paul,

You are right. You didn't quite get the gist of what I was doing. I have Common (not from a MVC model, because there are no examples out there anywhere on how to do a global/common with a dataprovider). In fact what blog posts I have found on it said it is impossible because they both can NOT access separate SqlDataProviders. I, of course, do not believe this and my need to access two separate dataproviders (as mentioned above) is too great to take "no" for an answer. The Calling module's separate DataProvider (works fine) and the Common's separate dataprovider Instance code was provided above. As you can see they are the same, but the common is DIES on the line specified in the code above. This is pretty much what the other bloggers said would happen. What I need is a way around it. I need it to work. So, you are correct in that you missed the question and the code. Any help is still very much appreciated. 

Paul
