Hi,

I would like to create a component within my solution, which has a string
property. This is simple enough, but I would like it to (at design time)
bring up a multi-line edit box, similar to the Items property of a combo box.
How can I do this? (example c# code would be great).

Thanks,
Colin.

You will need to write a UITypeEditor for your component. Refer to this
article to get started

look for articles by Shawn Burke, Chris Sells on custom controls, google
will give you some excellent stuff.
