Hello everyone, I've got serious problems in control creation...

1) How to write to runtime-read-only properties of control I'm using as
the base of my new control.
   I need to create my own control based on standard ListView. ListView
has for example 'HideSelection' property, which is read-only in runtime.
But when I'm creating own control based on ListView, this ListView is in
'runtime' mode while my new control is in design-time in VB development
environment. It means that I can't change this property of ListView in
design-time of my new control, because that ListView in already in
runtime mode. How to solve this ?

2) Problem with PropBag (Property Bag). I need to define own properties
for each column in original ListView (BO property bounding and other new
features). In fact this requires to store a collection or an array to
the PropBag. But when I tried to use collection, it displayed 'System
error - Such interface not supported' message after WriteProperties. So
I tried to use an array, but I wasn't able to read it then by
ReadProperties, because it isn't possible to write something like
MyArray=PropBag.ReadProperties("MyArray") - you can't assign a array by
"=".

Thanks for any advice
