Hello Experts, 
 
I am working with a VB .net project, and am looking at some of the defined properties. There are several items above the property that are labeled &quot;AttributeColumnName&quot; AttributeDBColumnName. I have never seen that before in VB.net. Can someone familiar with VB.net explain it to me? Why are these attributes above the property name? Can someone point me to some online documentation on this? 
 
&lt;AttributeColumnName(&quot;CITY_STATE&quot;), AtributeDBColumnName(&quot;CITY_STATE&quot;), AttributeDataType(&quot;char&quot;),AttributeKeywordField(&quot;pCITY_STATE&quot;),AttributeFieldLen(8),AttributeColumnIndex(12)&gt; 
Public Property CITY_STATE() AS String 
&nbsp;Get 
&nbsp; &nbsp; Return m_strCITY_STATE 
&nbsp;End Get 
Set(ByVal strVal AS String) 
&nbsp; &nbsp;m_strCITY_STATE = strVal 
End Set 
End Property

Microsoft launched VB.NET as the successor to the Visual Basic language. Though it is similar in syntax to  Visual Basic pre-2002, it is not the same technology,
