Control properties are not enabled

I have a base form that I use for creating a common look and feel of all my
forms. On the base form I've set all "Modifiers" to public so that the
inherited forms can edit them. I have a statusstrip on the base form. It's
Modifier is set to public, but the inherited forms cannot edit any of its
properties. Does anyone know why this may be?

Hi Steve,

Thanks for your feedback. Based on my research, this is a known design time
limitation that we will not be addressing in this Visual Studio 2005
release. We will look at improving this in future versions.

Please check the following links for more information about this issue.
