Adding a Module File
We will continue this chapter by extending the already-existent code from Chapter 2. We will modify the existing code to help us resolve the addition of the new module.
The service is going to continue to grow, so to help to keep things cleaner and more readable, let’s add a module file to the project. In the Solution Explorer, click the Tutorials project icon and select Add Module. Name the file modService.vb and click Add.
