• Windows Forms bind to indexer

  Hi, It's possible to bind to a indexer (ex: a["name"]) in VS 2005 beta2 (specially for datagridview) OK - you may be looking for something like the sample below - it takes virtual properties from a "model" and presents them to the DataGridView as "real" properties.  It involves implementing ICustomTypeDescriptor - and although a bit complex this is extremely powerful (and how ADO.NET do ...Show All
