Hi,
I always inherit from System.Web.UI.C ontrol, not UserControl.
For my properties I have this:
<Browsable(True ), Category("Stuff "),> _
Public Property FirstName() As String
For the properties I create custom designers for I use this:
<Browsable(True ), Category("Other Stuff"),_
Editor(GetType( MyEditor), GetType(UITypeE ditor))> _
Public Property FirstName() As String
Also be sure to add this line at the top of your control class:
Imports System.Componen tModel
Good luck! Ken.

How do I get the public properties of my custom control to show in the
designer. The properties are all Strings but they do not show up in
the designer property window.
My custom control inherits from:
System.Web.UI.U serControl
I have the following property:
Public Property workUnitCode() As String
...
End Property
I've tried putting the Browsable(true) tag but it does not help.
The custom control is in the same project with my page and I jsut drop
it onto the page. If I instantiate the control in the code-behind I
can see the properties.
Do I have to build the control in a dll and and include a reference to
that dll to make it work?
