Trying to implement CanConvertTo-method derived TypeConverter class

[Benny C. Mildh]

Hi!

I'm trying to implement my own CanConvertTo-method from the derived
TypeConverter class.

Public Overrides Function CanConvertFrom(ByVal context As
ITypeDescriptorContext, ByVal sourceType As Type) As Boolean

However, I do get an error message saying:

"function 'CanConvertFrom' cannot be declared Overrides because It does
not override a function in a base class."

Looking to MSDN, It looks to me like I've matched the base class
signature for this method.

If anyone could shed some light over this I'd be most appreciated.
Regards

No. I have "Ineherits TypeConverter". However, I think I've found the
problem: I forgot to include the keyword "overloads" in the signature.
It works better now. ;)
