.Net property Grid Control and read only Properties

Khawar

Hi!
I was experimenting with .Net property grid control. I found out in an
article how to show the properties of Com Based objects using
iCustomTypeDescriptor Interface. I tried it on MSHTML Classes and it
worked fine but I noticed that some of the properties(e.g. height
property for MSHTML objects) were readonly as i went in details i found
out that these properties were not readonly when ICustomTypeDescriptor
gets them but on some layer before being diplayed by property grid
control they are converted to readonly. I have worked on Stylus Studio
and Microsoft Visual Studio .net's editor for HTML and the same
properties are being displayed in writable mode. Can somebody solve
this mystery that how come those properties became readonly and how can
i manipulate them?

Regards
Khawar
