M Marina Jul 22, 2005 #2 If you want to be 'friend', wouldn't that by definition mean it can only be used in the assembly it is in? If you want it to be used both inside and outside the assembly, it should be public.

You could do it as protected if you want it to be only accessed by derived members of the same class... otherwise public does have to be used to get it available outside the assembly. Chris
