Which data control gives me this view?

[HillBilly]

I want to get a logged in user's properties into a vertical template

=============================================
FieldName Label | FieldValueToEdit Label
=============================================
LinkedFieldToEdit | ValueToEdit
.... | ...
.... | ...
=============================================

Which data control in the framework should be used and if more than one
choice is available using templates a quick comment on why please...

Hi Billy,

Would you be looking for a PropertyGrid? This is what is used for editing
properties in the Visual Studio IDE and supports various ways of editing the
values, including custom ones.

There are many examples on how to use a PropertyGrid

Hello there Morten, yes web developers need a PropertyGrid as it looks
exactly what I would like to use. I started by reviewing the QuickStarts [1]
where I'm sure one of the data controls may be used but its not easy to
determine which one supports vertical orientation. Perhaps somebody will
comment further...
