    copied!<p>I'm using several code converters which produce the same VB.Net coding but VS will not except this line of code:</p> <pre><code>Private Overridable m_Products As ICollection(Of Product) </code></pre> <p>VS states:</p> <p>'Overridable' is not valid on a member variable declaration.</p> <p>The C# coding is from a tutorial on the ASP.Net web site at:</p> <pre><code>http://www.asp.net/web-forms/tutorials/aspnet-45/getting-started-with-aspnet-45-web-forms/create_the_data_access_layer </code></pre> <p>VS also states I should remove the Overridable keyword. If I do that, will I break something in the tutorial? </p> <p>This is the C# coding I'm running through the converters:</p> <pre><code>using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations; namespace WingtipToys.Models { public class Category { [ScaffoldColumn(false)] public int CategoryID { get; set; } [Required, StringLength(100), Display(Name = "Name")] public string CategoryName { get; set; } [Display(Name = "Product Description")] public string Description { get; set; } public virtual ICollection&lt;Product&gt; Products { get; set; } } } </code></pre> <p>This is the result of the conversion:</p> <pre><code>Imports System.Collections.Generic Imports System.ComponentModel.DataAnnotations Namespace WingtipToys.Models Public Class Category &lt;ScaffoldColumn(False)&gt; _ Public Property CategoryID() As Integer Get Return m_CategoryID End Get Set m_CategoryID = Value End Set End Property Private m_CategoryID As Integer &lt;Required, StringLength(100), Display(Name := "Name")&gt; _ Public Property CategoryName() As String Get Return m_CategoryName End Get Set m_CategoryName = Value End Set End Property Private m_CategoryName As String &lt;Display(Name := "Product Description")&gt; _ Public Property Description() As String Get Return m_Description End Get Set m_Description = Value End Set End Property Private m_Description As String Public Overridable Property Products() As ICollection(Of Product) Get Return m_Products End Get Set m_Products = Value End Set End Property Private Overridable m_Products As ICollection(Of Product) End Class End Namespace </code></pre>
