Something like this:
Const m_nAmount As Long = 32
Public Property Get Amount() As Long
Amount = m_nAmount
End Property
Note that Let accessor is not defined.

The solution is OK, the problem is wrong! 
If you are the developer of the COM library, then you've the power to make the property read-only. On the other hand, if you're the client of it, simply access the property only for reading, finally, if you are ? then, my friend, I don't known.

Then I explain myself better… I must have the property to set at design-time in the VB property page (uc of OCX), but in "side client code"(OCX) i must HIDE this property. If I do not define the property "let", it's not visible in the VB property...

There is no way to hide the property at runtime. If I remember correctly, there is no property in the VB6 runtime to tell the component it's in Design mode or Runtime mode.
You cannot change the visibility of the property. It needs to be public for the designer to work on the component and the user gets to set it's property. You cannot change that visibility at compile time.

You can put this line in your property and during design it will allow any change and during runtime it will raise an error "or you can use a messagebox too" or just ignore the change:
Public Property Let EnableCheckMarkColumn(bVal As Boolean)
If Ambient.UserMode Then Err.Raise 382 '<--- won't let a change happen at runtime
mbEnableCheckMarkColumn = bVal
PropertyChanged "EnableCheckMarkColumn"
End Property
|
|
|
|
|
I forgot about Ambient! :-> Can you tell it's been 6 years since I've touched VB6??
Anyway...you're right. You can check for the run more, but you still can't change the visibility and hide it, like the OP wanted. Something he'll just have to live with...

Unfortunately, I still have to deal with and use it daily...we are slowly migrating stuff over to dotnet not as quickly as I would prefer...
I totally agree, on the visibility...

(EDIT: I just realized you are looking for VB6. This code/article suggestion is in .NET so I am not sure whether it will help you)
I believe you can set properties similar to what you want using ParentControlDesigners. An article that I wrote might be able to help you: Targeting Design-Time Events of User Controls. The article doesn't specifically cover it, but I am almost sure I ran into the situation you are looking for while I was writing it so it should lead you in the right direction.

What is the best way to display a tif file in VB.Net?
What controls would anyone recommend?
|
|
|
|
|
I believe GDI+ can read tif. If not, you're out of luck.
If you don't want to draw it yourself, use a picture control. Load the tif from disc into a bitmap object, and pass it over.

GDI+ can handle some TIFF files, but not all. Any TIFF's using JPEG compression are not supported.

You'd think this would be very easy, but it has some surprising problems and complexity.
You can get a bindable component to read the CSV file for you here[^].

How can i create a demo or trial version of my application?
|
|
|
|
|
A simple way could be writing a log file (or registry string) and control it (es. data install and data trial)..

I need d code for redistributing .net fwork silently installing with the application
|
|
|
|
|
The command line for launching the installation in silent mode is:
dotnetfx.exe /q:a /c:"install /l /q"
Just over half way down this[^] page, there is an explaination of the switched used and what the error returns would be.
All you need to do is use the Process class to launch it, just like any other process.

Are you coming from VB6?
If so, I had (actually have) the same problem.
In VB6 everything was so simple using the Winsock control, now in .Net everyone tells me it's so much simpler, but I disagree. There is so many different ways to do the same thing that a new programmer gets confused very easily, not knowing which way is best. The winsock had simple events that fired allowing you to capture incoming data and connection requests, in .Net you have to use delegates it seems. I haven't looked at it again, too busy but have a look at the TCPClient class and the System.Net.Sockets class.
you can't forget something you never knew...

Examples are easy enough to find. Just Google for "VB.NET Chat" and you'll come up with thousands of links to examples, most of which use sockets.
