    It appears that (at least in our systems), the property grid takes several seconds to show up in Visual Studio.NET. It happens every time you start working in VS.NET and the delay in loading the grid is very annoying. The grid is an important part of VS.NET, because without this, you won't be able to add event/message handlers for your VC++ apps. I don't know exactly why this happens, but hovering on the grid window using Spy++ gave me the impression that this whole module was written using .NET framework. [the grid and all of its children windows have class names starting with "WindowsForm"]. We know software written using .NET framework has an annoying loading problem, but I don't know if this is related. Just wondering if anybody else is having the same problem and knows of any workaround. // Fazlul

      The Property Grid was written using .NET.... It is actually a .NET component that you can add to your programs to change properties at run time.... Guess thats the price you pay... Speed that is. :bob: Joshua :bob: Sonork ID: 100.9944 ICQ: 519642 Hotmail: JoshuaJGuy@hotmail.com

        So I wasn't wrong. But I still don't know why they chose .NET to implement the grid, especially when performance of VS.NET is so critical. // Fazlul

          I don't think that this is the problem to be honest - it works fine on my system (a 1.4ghz Athlon, 256mb RAM but relatively slow disk). -- Andrew.
