PropertyDescriptor Class has a Converter method, which if overriden,
would return a TypeConverter.

I was working on dynamic values for a propertygrid, so for each
property all the methods of the PropertyDescriptor class were
overridden. But for a dropdown list I needed the COnverter method
also, but I dont know how I would do it?

eg.

public override Type PropertyType
            {
                get { return Type.GetType(item.TypeName); }
            }

returns a Type.

public override TypeConverter Converter
       {
           get
           {
               return ?
           }

       }

Please help. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanx
