All,

I have successfully used custom collections as the datasource for a datagrid
previously however this one is causing me problems as one of the properties
of the objects within the collection relate to another custom object as
follows

Public Class OrderNumber

 Public property Number As String
 .
 .
 End Property

 Public Property Type As OrderNumberType
 .
 .
 End Property

End Class

Public Class OrderNumberType

 Public Property ID as Integer
 .
 .
 End Property

 Public Property Description As String
 .
 .
 End Property

End Class

I have a collection that inherits CollectionBase called
OrderNumberCollection that I can add individual OrderNumber objects to and
everything is OK.

However when I then set

 datagrid.datasource = OrderNumberCollection

I can see all the properties of object OrderNumber as columns, however
within the grid rows the value of the OrderType column is
"<namespace>.OrderType" and what I want is for it to be OrderType.Description

Any thoughts welcomed !
