Pop up properties in VS2005

[VB Programmer]

I seem to remember during a demo that when you place an ASP.NET control on
the webform some of the most commonly used properties pop up at a convenient
location beside your mouse. I just installed VS2005 and can't find that
feature. What am I missing?

Thanks!

A handful of controls expose this functionality. The DataGrid for example
does, while the label doesn't. It shows up as a little black arrow that
points right. (don't mix it up with the smaller green arrow that poitns
right). Try putting a datagrid down and see if it shows up in design
view..

Thanks. Suprised that textbox doesn't do this. Oh well...
