Keyword "Select" in a user control

[Shane]

I'm creating a user control that has a textbox along with a couple of
other controls in it.

I'm mapping most of the textbox methods and properties to my control
using the textbox names. I'm having a problem with the "Select"
method. "Select" is a Visual Basic keyword, so the IDE will not let me
create that method. I'm currently using "Selects" instead, but I like
consistancy.

Anybody know a work around?

Thanks

Public Overloads Sub Selects()
tb.Select()
End Sub

Public Overloads Sub Selects(ByVal Start As Integer, ByVal Length
As Integer)
tb.Select(Start, Length)
End Sub
