Is it possible to have two different access modifiers on a property? I
used to be able to do this in VB6 but I cannot find the right syntax for
..NET.

Thanks,
Dan

Unfortunately this is not possible. Use a Public Readonly proeperty Get and
a Friend Sub SetTheProperty.

That's not possible in VB.NET. You can create procedures ('Get'x and
'Set'x) with different modifiers instead.
 
I'm still waiting for the newsgroup microsoft.public.notepad !!!

Just out of curiosity, does anyone know why this isn't allowed in .Net? (I
assume this is a limitation of the CLR, not a language-specific limitation.)
It was such a nice feature in VB6.

Is it a violation of some OO principle -- that the get and set accessors
must have the same scope?
