I would like to create a control designer for a container control that
will create child controls, much like the DataGridView designer adds
and removes Column controls.

Can anyone point me at some resources that show how to do this?

Thanks.
 
Hi,

This is done by using the IDesignerHost.CreateComponent function.

Google on this function and you will find samples. If you have specific
question, come back here.

Thank you very much. That should get me started.

Do you know of any examples of designers that maniupulate child
controls, or any books that cover this topic well?
 
You're welcome. Do not hesitate to ask if you have specific questions.
Design time development can be tricky..
