Overriding ToString...

StarkMike — Fri, 16 Feb 2007 09:07:23 GMT

Say I have a boolean variable named RecurseSubFolders... how can I override the ToString method of this boolean variable?

If the boolean is True, I want the ToString to return -r
If the boolean is False, I want the ToString to return ""

Any ideas?

Wrap it with a property that returns the value you expect:

[codesnippet]Public ReadOnly Property RecurseSubFoldersString As String
    Get
        If _RecurseSubFolders
             Return "YesValue"
        Else
             Return "NoValue"
        End If

    End Get
End Property[/codesnippet]
