Public Properties

[Edinson]

Hello.
I have a mdi parent form, and I want to change the values of its
status bar
from child forms, I tried with public properties, but it only works in
the
mdiparet, not from a child from...
... here is the code
Public Property myStatusBarText() As String
Get
Return sbMain.Panels(1).Text()
' Return textoControl
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As String)
' Only allow Set operation for values less than 10.
sbMain.Panels(1).Text = Value
End Set
End Property

how do I use it from child forms????

Please always tell what you mean by "doesn't work"...

What have you tried and what fails ? Could it be a casting problem ? Have
you tried to cast the MdiParent property to the type of this form ?
