Your Delivery class is internal  the default visibility for classes   however the property  and presumably the containing class  are public  so the property is more accessible than the Delivery class  You need to either make Delivery public  or restrict the visibility of the thelivery property

make your class public access modifier  just add public keyword infront of your class name  namespace Test     public  class Delivery               private string name          private string address          private DateTime arrivalTime           public string Name                       get   return name                set   name   value                       public string Address                       get   return address                set   address   value                       public DateTime ArrivlaTime                       get   return arrivalTime                set   arrivalTime   value                       public string ToString                           return name   address   arrivalTime ToString

Your class Delivery has no access modifier  which means it defaults to internal  If you then try to expose a property of that type as public  it won t work  Your type  class  needs to have the same  or higher access as your property   More about access modifiers  http   msdn microsoft com en-us library ms173121 aspx
