    Cntrol Creation

    Hello.. I want to create a control that resembles the "Properties "
    window in Visual Studio. What is the best control I can use for that ?
    I am using .NET 1.1 and winforms. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.

      Use a System.Windows. Forms.PropertyG rid control. This looks exactly the
      same as the Properties window (and has the same capabilities) and is very
      easy to use: just assign to the property SelectedObject a reference to the
      object whose properties you want to show, and they appear in the control.
      You can decorate with attributes the properties in your object to control
      the way that they are displayed in the PropertyGrid.

          Thank you very much for your reply. My requirement is I need to have a
          control with three columns, where the first column is a CheckBox,
          second is normal column and third is a column which will have controls
          based on the value in the second column
          eg: chekbox Question1 CheckBox
          checkbox Question2 TextBox
          checkbox Question3 ComboBox
          and so on... Can I create controls inside a ListBox or a ListView? How
          can I do it..? Thanks in advance....

              Ah, no, you can't the PropertyGrid for this purpose. It always displays
              two columns, and the first one is always the name of each property.

              If I have understood what you are describing, I think that a DataGrid
              control would be the best for you, but you will have to do quite a bit of
              work to sublass the DataGridColumnS tyle for the third column, which needs to
              host different controls depending on the value of another column.
