    <p>Yes, at least in my experience I try to avoid properties and use function and routines in place. Here is my reasons why:</p> <ol> <li>Cannot use properties with delegates. I believe you can in C# but upon </li> <li>Properties are deceptive, they look like members, but behave like functions. So while you might think you are just looking at a member value you could in fact be initializing the entire system over again because the implementing developer abused lazy instantiation.</li> <li><p>Less Code, while it's not a HUGE amount, defining properties in VB requires at least 2 extra lines of code per get or set. The Overhead is double the lines of actual code for a single assignment or return operation. Although small this makes reading code much more difficult, VB is already an obsessively wordy language.</p> <pre><code>Private ReadOnly Property Foo As String Get Return Bar End Get End Property </code></pre> <p>vs</p> <pre><code>Private Function Foo As String Return Bar End Function </code></pre></li> <li><p>Properties are less flexible you must return what the same value you get. In Other words you can't set the value using a <code>String</code> and get using an <code>Integer</code> or overload setting with a <code>String</code>, or an <code>Integer</code>.</p></li> </ol> <p>Now to be fair the Reasons I use Properties is to get the <code>=</code> syntax for setting, which this doesn't apply when you have a read only property. Also Properties can be set in the VS editor in the properties dialog.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
