.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / October 2006Format String Dialog
Visual Stadio IDE uses a dialog box to define format strings... http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171572.aspx Can I reuse that dialog box on my application? How? I'have seen the dialog appers (at runtime) if I use a PropertyGrid control point to a DataGridViewCellStyle... However, the "Format" property is just a string.... I need the same behavior for a propery of a class I've done... I've been looking around for hours... Any help apprecieted... I've found the editor that I need is: EditorTypeName: "System.Windows.Forms.Design.FormatStringEditor, System.Design, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a" However, I don't know what references I have to set.... I get an error message telling me that 'The type is no defined' Dim t As Type = GetType(Windows.Forms.Design.FormatStringEditor) Please... may you check if that code works to you? > Visual Stadio IDE uses a dialog box to define format strings... > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > I've been looking around for hours... Any help apprecieted... Hi Polonio, You can't use that class because it's marked as internal to the assembly in which it's defined. If you want to provide similar functionality you can write your own UITypeEditor implementation. Implementing a UITypeEditor on MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cp conimplementinguitypeeditor.asp?frame=true Attach the editor to your property by adorning the property with an EditorAttribute.

That what I did not want to do... Does anyone knows about a public control with that funcionality? > Hi Polonio, > [quoted text clipped - 35 lines] >>> >>> I've been looking around for hours...
