UserControl and its properties

[DukeMan]

Hello,

I'm creating an usercontrol. Now i want to create some properties for it, and i'm wondering if the following can be accomplished:

usercontrol.props.add()

I can create it like this:

usercontrol.add()


This is what i have as code:

Public type item
  prop1 as string
  prop2 as string
end type

public property get test() as item
'code
end property

public property let test(vNewValue as item)
'code
end property

Public sub Add()
'code
end sub

Can anyone tell me, what i have to do to make the sub Add() as a property of Item??

Thanx,
Barry

You would use the same syntax as for your test Property to create another Proprety.
I don't know anyway to create something like usercontrol.props.add().
I'd just set your strings in a Property.

If you add public Subs/Functions, then these are like methods for your control.

Can you give me some more info please? i don't what you mean.

At the top of the code, define prop1 to be modular variable:

Private m_prop1 As String

to set prop1:

public property let Prop1(vNewValue as String)
    m_prop1 = vNewValue
end property

So prop1 is read-only, if you want it to be read/write then add:

public property get Prop1() as String
    Prop1 = m_prop1
end property

I like paraffin by the way!
