Hi,
I have a situation where I have a Parent Object (Company) which has several
public properties. The Company Object also creates an Employees object
which has its ow set of functions and properties. I am trying to figure out
how to access the Parent properties from the child object.
Simplified example:
Class Company
Public ReadOnly Property Employees() As Employees
Public Sub New(ByVal CompanyID As String)
_CompanyID = CompanyID
_Employees = New Employees(_CompanyID)
End Sub
Get
Return _Employees
End Get
End Property
Public ReadOnly Property CompanyID() As String
Get
Return _CompanyID
End Get
End Property
Public Property DateLow() As Date
Get
Return _DateLow
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Date)
_DateLow = Value
End Set
End Property
Public Property DateHi() As Date
Get
Return _DateHi
End Get
Set(ByVal Value As Date)
_DateHi = Value
End Set
End Property
End Class
Class Employees
>>>How do I get at the CompanyID Property of the Company Parent Object??
End Class
Thanks,
Ron 8  6545 
Add a reference to the Company in the Employees class. When you create the
Employees class, fill in reference with the parent that created it.

You don't. If the child doesn't have the information, it doesn't. You
have to put the information there from the parents perspective.
You can add a reference to the company as a parameter to the constructor
of the Employees collection.
