'<procedurename1>' cannot override '<procedurename2>' because it is not accessible in this context

A procedure or property overrides a procedure or property with an access level that prevents access by the overriding procedure or property.

For example, if a procedure is declared as Friend in one assembly, it cannot be accessed outside that assembly. If a procedure in another assembly in the same project attempts to override the Friend procedure, it cannot access it to override it.

Error ID: BC31417

To correct this error

• Move the overriding procedure or property to the same assembly as the procedure or property it is to override.

• Remove the Overrides keyword.
