Hello,

My component has a string type of property which has set "Browsable"
attribute to false...My custom property page does set/get that property and
I want to force it to be serialized into code in Design-Time...

I tried setting various "DesignerSerializationVisibility" atrribute values
to that property but it didn't work...Can anybody help me?

Regards,

Özden

Try this:

Private Function ShouldSerializeMyProperty() As Boolean
Return True
End Function

Replace "MyProperty" with the property name of the property you need to be
serialized. This is valid for any type.

Hello Carlo,

Thank you very much for the suggestion and it worked...I use lots of
ShouldSerializeXXX for my normal properties but didn't thought that this
will solve my problem, I think I'm working too much nowadays...:)

Thanks again...
