Generic ascx controls with properties

[Bonj]

H
I want to make an ascx control with a DataGrid on it and make its bindings generic by using an ascx control, is there any way I can give each ascx control its own 'properties', like I want to make each instance of it a different forecolor, and I also want to give each one a different dataset (although the column specifications will be identical.)

Certainly, but don't expect these to show up in design view in visual studio, you'll have to know how to edit the html source to change them.

On the control, just set up public Get/Set properties for the DataSet and the colors. When the control is placed on the page, just set those property values from the page. When the page is run, the colors/dataset should run correctly.
