If you have used Microsoft Visual Basic or Microsoft Visual Studio .NET then you have used a property browser to browse, view, and edit the properties of one or more objects. The .NET Framework PropertyGrid control is core to the property browser that is in Visual Studio .NET. The PropertyGrid control displays properties for any object or type, and it retrieves the item's properties, primarily using reflection. This paper helps you understand the PropertyGrid control in the Microsoft .NET Framework and how to customize it for your application.
