    <p>No. Alternatively you could accept a lambda as an argument, which also gives you full control in which part of the "creation" process will be called. This way you can call it like:</p> <pre><code>MyClass instance = MyClass.FactoryCreate(c=&gt; { c.SomeProperty = something; c.AnotherProperty = somethingElse; }); </code></pre> <p>The create would look similar to:</p> <pre><code>public static MyClass FactoryCreate(Action&lt;MyClass&gt; initalizer) { MyClass myClass = new MyClass(); //do stuff initializer( myClass ); //do more stuff return myClass; } </code></pre> <hr> <p>Another option is to return a builder instead (with an implicit cast operator to MyClass). Which you would call like:</p> <pre><code>MyClass instance = MyClass.FactoryCreate() .WithSomeProperty(something) .WithAnotherProperty(somethingElse); </code></pre> <p>Check <a href="http://elegantcode.com/2008/04/26/test-data-builders-refined/" rel="noreferrer">this</a> for the builder</p> <p>Both of these versions are checked at compile time and have full intellisense support.</p> <hr> <p>A third option that requires a default constructor:</p> <pre><code>//used like: var data = MyClass.FactoryCreate(() =&gt; new Data { Desc = "something", Id = 1 }); //Implemented as: public static MyClass FactoryCreate(Expression&lt;Func&lt;MyClass&gt;&gt; initializer) { var myclass = new MyClass(); ApplyInitializer(myclass, (MemberInitExpression)initializer.Body); return myclass ; } //using this: static void ApplyInitializer(object instance, MemberInitExpression initalizer) { foreach (var bind in initalizer.Bindings.Cast&lt;MemberAssignment&gt;()) { var prop = (PropertyInfo)bind.Member; var value = ((ConstantExpression)bind.Expression).Value; prop.SetValue(instance, value, null); } } </code></pre> <p>Its a middle between checked at compile time and not checked. It does need some work, as it is forcing constant expression on the assignments. I think that anything else are variations of the approaches already in the answers. Remember that you can also use the normal assignments, consider if you really need any of this.</p>

    1. COI like the lambda solution, which is somewhat close to the right syntax, but the builder syntax requires me to make a function for every property, which is not viable, especially in an abstract factory situation.

    2. CO@Gaijin I agree, the lambda is a really quick, nice and well supported way. I use the builder for test code with clear defaults and some methods that are not to just set a property. In particular it is really useful if MyClass is immutable (as you need to apply it all at the constructor).

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
