Hello

in my webpart I do have this custom property:

[Personalizable(PersonalizationScope.Shared)]
[WebPartStorage(Storage.Shared)]
[WebBrowsable(true)]
public string Names
{
get { return (this.MyNames); }
set { this.MyNames = value; }
}

This property does not appear in the edit pane and that is wanted.
My question is how can I write values into this custom property
programmatically?

Example where I want to store "Bob" into SharePoint so that the
property "Names" will always have the value "Bob":

this.Names = "Bob";

But this does not work. What am I doing wrong?
