Property Get with argument

[Ömer Ayzan]

Dear friends,

I am trying to write a class that will parse XML data. I have a property
called TagName. Since there are many tags I wanted to index them. Even
though in the syntax of Property Get statement an argument can be used when
I attempt to use the following code I get an "Compile error: Can't assign to
read-only property." error.

Public Property Let TagName(ByVal intI As Integer)
TagName(intI) = ParsedData(intI)
End Property
Any suggestions are appreciated

Hi Ömer,

The TagName property is a single value, not an array. The way you have
it defined (which I think is what you want) is that the desired array index
is passed in and the single value from that array is returned. In that case
it should work if modified as follows:

Public Property Let TagName(ByVal intI As Integer)
TagName = ParsedData(intI)
End Property

This assumes that ParsedData is a valid array and that intI is a valid index
into that array.

Rob in my earlier question I mistakenly posted a property let procedure. It
would have been Property Get.

Hi Rob,

I worked that way. My mistake was to try to dimension the TagName property.

Thanks alot,

Ömer
