Take full advantage of the. NET Framework's PropertyGrid control (Microsoft) III

Controls | Where Microsoft uses the PropertyGrid control
In many parts of your application, you can enable users to interact with PropertyGrid for a richer editing experience. For example, an application contains "settings" or options that multiple users can set, some of which can be complex. You can use radio buttons, combo boxes, or text boxes to represent these options. However, this step-by-step article describes how to use the PropertyGrid control to create an option window to set application options. The OptionsDialog form that is created above is the beginning of the Options window. Now we create a class named AppSettings that contains all the properties that map to the application settings. If you create a separate class without using multiple dispersed variables, the settings are easier to manage and maintain.
