      Well, while I move this to the .NET forum, you could write some code and see for yourself...

          Private variables do not exist. They're just an on-going joke started by some OO wackos.

          But when we watch those variables in VS.NET, we do see those variables. For example check m_roles in GenericPrincipal object.

            My reply to you is stored in a private variable. Maybe you can use reflection to discover (or maybe not :rolleyes:).

                    This is a joke reply, about all you will get to a programming question asked in the lounge.
