Setting the default member of a class -- c#

Hi
I'm searching for the way to set up the default property of my class.
I'm using v1.1 of the fmk.
For example, when I drag an object of an ArrayList type into the Watch
window, it immediately displays the value of Count property like this:

myArrayList {Count=1} System.Collections.ArrayList

It's frustrating that I didn't find out how to specify this custom
attribute to my class.

Thanks.

Thanks for reply.
It won't work.
I found out I need to modify 2 files in order to make the IDE to
understand what I want:

C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Packages
\Debugger\mcee_cs.dat
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\Packages
\Debugger\mcee_mc.dat

No other way?

The IDE display the result of the ToString() method.
Override the ToString() and let it return the info you want to see in the
debugger.

If you're using VS2005 and .NET Framework 2.0 you can use the
DebuggerDisplayAttribute instead.

It *works*.
If it doesn't work I don't understand the problem or you didn't it
correctly.
