Property '<propertyname>' doesn't return a value on all code paths. A null reference exception could occur at run time when the result is used.
A property Get procedure has at least one possible path through its code that does not return a value.
You can return a value from a property Get procedure in any of the following ways:
Assign the value to the property name and then perform an
Exit Propertystatement.Assign the value to the property name and then perform the
End Getstatement.Include the value in a Return Statement.
If control passes to Exit Property or End Get and you have not assigned any value to the property name, the Get procedure returns the default value of the property's data type. For more information, see "Behavior" in Function Statement.
By default, this message is a warning. For more information on hiding warnings or treating warnings as errors, see Configuring Warnings in Visual Basic.
Error ID: BC42107
To correct this error
Check your control flow logic and make sure you assign a value before every statement that causes a return.
It's easier to guarantee that every return from the procedure returns a value if you always use the
Returnstatement. If you do this, the last statement beforeEnd Getshould be aReturnstatement.
