overriding an abstract property?

I'm inheriting from a class that has an abstract property
the property has a get and set field. I'm wondering if there is a way to override it so that I would only need to implement the get field (ie, make it a readonly property)

Nope, 'fraid not - you can provide an empty implementation however:

Code:

---

protected override string PropertyName
{
    get
    {
        return _someVariable;
    }
    set
    {
        // No implementation.
    }
}
