I would also like to be able to open any number of ChildForms and change properties for each individual ChildForm object (so each could display graph with different settings ) ...

Now I want to add a setup form (shown when pressing button on ChildForm), from which I could change properties of my myGrid object from myGraphGridClass.

However, the complier won’t let me set the DefaultValue to DateTime.Now (or any other DateTime object) and I’ve had no luck finding an answer on the net.

Is there a way to stop the designer from trying to “figure out” what my control would look like and just set its placement?
