Q.

I have been experimenting with the Volume Administration control in order to set space limits for volumes. I am perplexed because the help indicates that TotalSpace property (NWVolAdm.NWSpaceLimit) is both Read/Write (what I need) and Read Only (not good for me).

The code works by adding the value provided to the limit e.g.,:

spcLimit.ChangeTotalSpace (CInt(txtTotalSpace.Text))

works just fine. However, if I want the user to specify an absolute value I want to use:

spcLimit.TotalSpace (CLng(txtTotalSpace.Text))

which gives me the following error:

"Compile Error: invalid use of property"

Am I missing something basic here, or what?

A.

Use the following:

spcLimit.TotalSpace = CLng(txtTotalSpace.Text)
