Datagridview, object datasource, and hiding properties via attribuI seem to remember this being possible, but I can't find a single thing about
it now.. I have a datagridview that is bound to a bindinglist of type 'foo'. Foo is a business object with a number of public attributes. I want to prevent the datagridview from binding to some of these public attributes. I can do it in the datagridview, but as I remember, there are some attributes that I can apply to the public attributes in Foo that will change how they bind to the datagridview. Is my memory faulty? If not, can you give me some of the attributes so that I can search on those? TIA. It might be that I'm mixing up the datagridview with the property grid, which does use reflection to examine the attributes of public properties in the object that is bound to the property grid....

You can set a different attribute on the bindingsource if you want. Thought Browsable(false) is pretty common for this.
