Hide inherited properties of another control

[John Graham]

I've created an active x control which has a couple of text boxes, a command button and a frame. I know how to add extra properties into my control using property let, get. How can I remove some of the default properties of the standard (e.g. text box) controls from my own control?

Is this possible

thanks in advance

Are you talking about VB6? No properties are added by default when making a user control. If you used the Wizard then the wizard ma have added them but you can either use the wizrd again and remove them or just delete the code for them.

hi Edneeis,
thanks for the reply, I am using VB6 and did not use the wizrd. What I mean is that I want to remove dome of the default text box properties from my control which incorporates text boxes, any idea on how to do this??

thanks

BY default if you make a UserControl and put control on it (i.e TextBoxes) it doesn't expose the properties of those control nested in your usercontrol. In fact none of them are exposed, unless you expose them by mapping them to the nested control's properties or manually write the code.

So if I make a new usercontrol and stick a textbox on it that doesn't mean that my control has a text property or multiline or any of those. Unless of course I added them through code.

Edneeis,

cheers
