Sir/Madam, Can somebody please provide the help with the help of an easy example how to differentiate between Protected Internal Internal protected Please help. Thanks and regards Pankaj Garg

Protected means that only derived classes can see it internal means that only classes inside the current assembly can see it. Protected Internal would mean that only derived classes within this assembly can see it. 'Problem' is not a very useful header.

internal: Access is limited to the current assembly. protected internal: Access is limited to the current assembly or types derived from the containing class.

Hi, Here an example. U have 2 dlls : DLL1 and DLL2. In DLL1 u have a class Employee with a method Fire() In DLL2 u have a class Boss. 1- if u declare the Fire method as protected, in the boss class u can invoke the Fire method and U cannot invoke the fire method anywhere else the Boss class 2- if u declare it as Internal : u can invoke the fire method anywhere in DLL1 but not in DLL2. U cannot also view the method in the Boss class (because it's in the DLL2) 3- If u declare it as Internal protected, u can only invoke the method from a class inheriting from Employee located in the DLL1.
