Having said that, I found out about the "Never" setting for EditorBrowsable just the other day, and I was surprised (I'd already known about Advanced years ago, and put it out of mind). I don't think the feature is a good idea at all, given how people who use modern IDEs depend on intellisense - it's a kind of "encapsulation through obscurity". I've been bitten lately by a similar thing with respect to WPF - DebuggerNonUserCode. I find it infuriating when I can't step into code just because the debugger thinks I might confuse my simple little mind. It's a fear I have for VS + .NET - a VB-ization of the programming environment, making the simple things easier and the complex things harder. -- Barry -- http://barrkel.blogspot.com/ =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
