I want to override a property in VB, I know in C# I can do this:

Public new String Text
{

Hi Jimmy,

....
Class Base
Public Overridable ReadOnly Property Total() As Double
Get
Return ....
End Get
End Property
End Class

Class Base
Inherits Derived
Public Overrides ReadOnly Property Total() As Double
Get
Return ...
End Get
End Property
End Class
....
There is the full example: http://www.awprofessional.com/articles/article.asp?p=170719&seqNum=4&rl=1

PS. "new" statement is not an overriding. It's hidding.
