Hi,

I have a collection stored in a file. One property of each collectionitem is a value of what seeems to be a set but is not. That property is no longer needed. Is there a way to delete that property? I suppose I can do that by creating a new collectionitem type without that property and migrate the data. But then a have a different collection which meens a have to make lots of changes.

Yet that is the only correct way.

If you can make a descendent, you can
override the property and simply discard the value when it is set in the
setter.


If deleting a property isn't possible, how can I delete the value of that property?

In the file, in the instance of the collectionitem or where ?


And an extra question is: how can I test whether the property has a value or not?

The possible value is defined as followes:
TTest = (test1, test2, test3);
TTestValues = set ot TTest;

The property has a set as value ?

If the set is empty, then the property has no value ? Unless empty value is also a value.

Michael.
