Hi, NG!
Does anyone have any hint on how to get the PropertyGrid control to display
more user-friendly "property" names, i.e. names that contain spaces, just
the way the VS IDE does when you select a file in Solution Explorer to view
its properties ("Build Action", "Copy to Output Directory" etc)? How are
those strings displayed since they don't seem to be real property names as
they contain spaces? I'm trying to achieve this in C#...
Thanks in advance.

If you are trying to display properties for a class you control you can
implement the ICustomeTypeDescriptor interface found in the
System.ComponentModel namespace, override the GetProperties() and create
your own PropertyDescriptors overriding the DisplayName property.

Thanks a lot, Gabriel. There's a lot of information in your swift reply, I
hope I'll be able to find my way through...
And yes, the class should be mine, I guess there would be nothing to expect
if it were not mine.
Thanks.
