Import the reference for System.ComponentModel and try it again. I checked it in 2003 and it works.

Which version of visual studio are you using? I have done this in VS 2005 and I have tested this example in 2005 and it worked fine. I can check it in 2003 if you are using that IDE.

Hi,

Thank u so much for your reply.
I tried it, but it doesn't work as desired. I have included the same overriden property in my control class, still it displays that property in PropertyGrid at run time.
Also there are some properties which are not declared overridable, how to exclude such properties from browasing? Please reply if u have got the solution.

Thanks again.

It is not much fun but you can override each property and set the Browsable attribute to false which will make it disappear from the property grid at design time (for example):

False)> _
Public Overrides Property BackColor() As System.Drawing.Color
     Get
          Return MyBase.BackColor
     End Get

     Set(ByVal value As System.Drawing.Color)
          MyBase.BackColor = value
     End Set
End Property
