Label in custom control

Hi All,

I have a custom control that includes a Label as one of its properties.
During design-time I am able to modify the values of various properties of
the custom control, including Font, Location, .. of the Label property.
This all works very well with VS 2003. Recently I created the same custom
control with VS 2005 and built it successfully. However during design-time
the Label property appears in the property window but is in grey and I can
not modify it or do anything with it. I only have the problem with the
Label property and all my other properties are just fine. Is any special
treatment needed when working with VS 2005? I searched everywhere for
information but found none. Any help or insight is very much appreciated.



P.S. My project is for Windows CE, so I work with the .NET Compact
Framework.



Thanks

JC

There's a new design-time paradigm for smart device custom controls in VS
2005. See if the information at the link below gets you back on track.
