Property Procedure: - Here we can store the value and also can retrieve the value. 1.Enclosed within Property and End Property. 2.It uses two blocks known as Get and Set. 3.Set-> End Set, used for storing the value. Get-> End Get, used for returning or retrieving the value. 4.It returns the value. 5.It supports ByVal but not support ByRef. Program Public Class Form1 Dim age As Integer Private Property Y() As Integer Get Return age End Get Set(ByVal Value As Integer) age = Value MsgBox("Age set") End Set End Property Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click If TextBox1.Text = "" Then MsgBox("Please enter your age") Else Try Y = TextBox1.Text Catch ex As Exception MsgBox(ex.Message) End Try TextBox1.Clear() End If End Sub Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click MsgBox("Your age is: " & Y) End Sub End Class
