How to view objects properties for DataBind

Hi

I'd like to view which properties of a data object are available to me
for the DataTextField and DatavalueField properties of most databound
controls in a webform. These are usually recordset types and I'd like
to see what fields I have available without seeing the underlying
database.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi,

Use the propertygrid control instead. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpref/html/frlrfsystemwindowsformspropertygridclasstopic.asp

Thanks Ken - do you know if there is a WebForms equivalent?

Thanks again!

Ignore this last post - I just introduced myself to .net
system.reflection!

Thanks
