Items propertywhy is it that some collection classes, eg BindingList, but others as well do
not expose their Items property? It is there as a Protected property so why not make it public? I can work around this but there must be a design reason for this, what is it? --guy-- "guy" <g**@discussions.microsoft.com> schrieb BindingList: "Search found no results"> why is it that some collection classes, eg BindingList, but others > as well do not expose their Items property?

System.Windows.Forms.BindingsCollection.Item, if you mean that, is public. Armin Hi Armin,
my thought was that you cant do a For Each thing as Object in myBindingList.Items you have to do something like For i=1 to myBindingList.Count thing=myBindingList.Item(i) i just wondered why it was designed this way cheers guy Show quoteHide quote "Armin Zingler" wrote: > "guy" <g**@discussions.microsoft.com> schrieb > > why is it that some collection classes, eg BindingList, but others > > as well do not expose their Items property?

BindingList does not expose an Items collection as BindingList itself is the "items" collection. Instead of: | For Each thing as Object in myBindingList.Items Use:For Each thing as Object in myBindingList FWIW: If you have a type that has an "Items" collection that suggests that you have a type that *has* a collection. Classes such as BindingList (that have a Count & Item properties, GetEnumerator method) *are* a collection. Generally For Each requires that the type implement IEnumerable or IEnumerable(Of T). However For Each can operate on types that have a GetEnumerator method without implementing either interface... Unfortunately I don't have the link handy on the specifics of what For Each looks for... -- Show quoteHide quoteHope this helps Jay [MVP - Outlook] ..NET Application Architect, Enthusiast, & Evangelist T.S.

Did you try this one already? http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/search/?query=ComponentModel.BindingList+ All compactframework as far as I saw.

Thx anyway. :-) Armin F1 in VS2005 SUCKS! (most of the time).
