Sounds like its not properly being serialised and/or parsed
within the
designer.

Make sure when you set the properties, the appropriate
markup is set in the
source view. Additionally, make sure your code parses this
markup correctly
(I suspect this is where its not working). So when it reads
the markup that
defines the control, its not properly reading the values and
setting these
properties.

Subject: [aspnet-controlbuilding] RE: Composite Control

Hello Fred:

What I have is a ListBox within a composite control. I have
exposed the
whole control via a proeprty. So, if I change for example
the Items
property, they are shown now on the IDE, but when I run the
page, the items
inside the ListBox which is inside the composite control are
not shown!

I have read some articles today which says, it is better not
to expose the
whole list as a proeprty but rather selective properties!!

Thanks
