Override method with member

I want to name a variable in a form Move.

But Move() is a method, (Control.Move) that the form inherits.

Can I override a method and have a variable with the same name that I
can access publically?

Well, I couldn't figure out how.

I set a reference to a child form:

frmMove Move = new frmMove(parentForm);
Then when I tried to reference parentForm.Move in the Dispose() method,
it only referred to the Control.Move() method. So, I was wondering if
I could override the Control.Move() method so I could access the .Move
member.

The quick answer is no, you can't have a field with the exact same name as a
method.
