>If I understand correctly you are just trying to determine whether the method is overridden in the child class. If so I don't know why you are walking the class hierarchy. If the method exists then you could just use :

return (loMethodInfo.ReflectedType = loMethodInfo.DeclaringType)

This works. Thanks

Is this how you see this:

    ' If a method exists in a sub class. This is used when we negotiate with the Overrides method. Thus, the framework
    ' may know if the Overrides method exists in the sub class. This is used in the DataEntry class. So, if the method
    ' does not exist, we do not call it. And, if it exists, it allows us to validate, if necessary, before proceeding.
    ' expO1 Originator
    ' expC1 Name of the method
    Public Function IsMethodExistInSubClass(ByVal toOriginator As Object, ByVal tcMethod As String) As Boolean
        Dim llExist As Boolean = False
        Dim loType As Type = Nothing
        Dim loMethodInfo As System.Reflection.MethodInfo = Nothing

        ' Get a reference to the originator type
        loType = toOriginator.GetType()

        ' Get a reference to the method
        loMethodInfo = loType.GetMethod(tcMethod, System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Instance Or System.Reflection.BindingFlags.Public)

        ' If the method does not exist
        If loMethodInfo.ReflectedType = loMethodInfo.DeclaringType Then
            llExist = True
        End If

        Return llExist
    End Function
