----------------------
' Gambas class file ProgType
PUBLIC Name AS String
PUBLIC Pfad AS String
PUBLIC Verzeichnis AS String
--------------------

'This is in another class (form)
PUBLIC Prog1 AS NEW object[] ' objects of ProgType
 or
STATIC PUBLIC Prog1 AS NEW object[] ' objects of ProgType

I belive STATIC should be the correct one, try and error ;)

and in a SUB there:
PUBLIC SUB onButton1Click()

	DIM progdata AS NEW ProgType
	progdata.Name= "the_name"
	progdata.Pfad = "The_Pfad"
	progdata.Verzeichnis = "The_Ordner"

> 	Prog1.Pfad.Add("hello")
	Prog1.Add(progdata) 'Prog1 is the array of progdata's
END

May be this will help as a guide.
