It'd be very useful to be able to lock a property grid item but still be able to use the buttons - sort of a variation on read only. This way, the user is forced to use the color picker, rather than manually enter the color code (and possibly screw it up).

Hello, just don't set ItemHasEdit flag: Set Item = Category.AddChildItem(PropertyItemColor, "ToolbarColor", &HAA00FF) |

Oleg,
I've done that, and it still allows editing in the item. |

Oleg, this code allows the user to type into that field. Whatever they add to that field disappears as soon as the field loses focus, but they can still type there.
Dim pgiColorDesc As PropertyGridItem Dim pgiColorItem As PropertyGridItem On Error GoTo ErrorHandler Set pgiColorDesc = pgiCategory.AddChildItem(PropertyItemString, sParentCaption) pgiColorDesc.ReadOnly = True Set pgiColorItem = pgiColorDesc.AddChildItem(PropertyItemColor, lblBackColor.Caption) pgiColorItem.Value = lBackColor Set pgiColorItem = pgiColorDesc.AddChildItem(PropertyItemColor, lblForeColor.Caption) pgiColorItem.Value = lForeColor pgiColorItem.flags = ItemHasComboButton pgiColorDesc.CaptionMetrics.BackColor = lBackColor pgiColorDesc.CaptionMetrics.ForeColor = lForeColor pgiColorItem.EnsureVisible |

Wait a minute... I'm a moron. Just figured it out.
Disregard that previous code snippet. |
