  public void LoadComponentSettings()
  {
  mEngineSettings.Reload();
  }

  public void ResetComponentSettings()
  {
  mEngineSettings.Reset();
  }

  public void SaveComponentSettings()
  {
  mEngineSettings.Save();
  }

  Where mEngineSettings is an instance of:

  public class EngineSettings: ApplicationSettingsBase
  {

  [UserScopedSetting]
  public String TestString
  {

  get { return (String )this["TestString"]; }
  set { this["TestString"] = value; }

  }

  }

  I don't know if this is what you're asking for, but this article helped me: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-US/library/system.configuration.applicationsettingsbase(VS.80).aspx

  It's not for a UserControl, but it should be similar - apply the example code for a UserControl instead of a WinForm, and make call the Save() and Reload() methods for the IPersistComponentSettings-methods.

  One way to do this would be to inherit from DataGridView and implement IPersistComponentSettings. This is a new interface in Whidbey exactly for this use - to persist settings. You can then create you own Settings class (which inherits from ApplicationSettingsBase) and define all properties that you would like to persist. You can also choose what is the scope of persistance - User level, application level, etc.
