Creating and Using Custom Properties with PropertyLet and PropertyGet Routines
A PropertyLet routine is a special type of subroutine that automatically executes whenever the property's value is changed. A PropertyGet routine is another special subroutine that automatically executes whenever the value of the Custom property is retrieved. Instead of using a Public variable to create a property, you insert two special routines: PropertyLet and PropertyGet. This example is found in CHAP10EX.ACCDB in the frmPropertyGetLet and frmChangeWithLet forms. To insert the PropertyLet and PropertyGet routines, follow these steps: 1. Choose Insert, Procedure. The dialog box shown in Figure 10.28 appears. 2. Type the name of the procedure in the Name text box. 3. Select Property from the Type option buttons. 4. Select Public as the Scope so that the property is visible outside the form. 5. Click OK. The PropertyGet and PropertyLet subroutines are inserted in the module.Notice that the Click event code for the cmdChangeCaption command button hasn't changed. The PropertyLet routine, which automatically executes whenever the value of the CustomCaption property is changed, takes the uppercase value of what it's being sent and places it in a Private variable called mstrCustomCaption. The PropertyGet routine takes the value of the Private variable and returns it to whoever asked for the value of the property.
You might wonder why this method is preferable to declaring a Public variable. Using the UCase function within PropertyLet should illustrate why. Whenever you expose a Public variable, you can't do much to validate or manipulate the value you receive. The PropertyLet routine gives you the opportunity to validate and manipulate the value to which the property is being set. By placing the manipulated value in a Private variable and then retrieving the Private variable's value when the property is returned, you gain full control over what happens internally to the property.
