Handling properties

Question

I understand the basics of handling properties from classes declared by yourself using {get, set}.

I would like to know how to handle properties of classes already declared by C#, i.e. System.Console.Foreground.

Could anyone help with an example or two?

Gracias

Happy New Year! Immediately after posting I got an overwhelming list of vessels to attend thus my delay in comming back. Today yes today I got time to work out this. Console .ForegroundColor = ConsoleColor .Red; Now I am starting to grasp how it actually works. Moreover I was confused about where to look for. Using the Objects explorer in Visual C# Express 2008 I got things clear. Otherwise I would be still lost. (I am affraid you will hear of me again here.) It is not 'one giant leap for mankind but a good start anyway eh? Gracias for replying.

[code]System.Console.Foreground[/code] is the color property for the consoles foreground color. All you should have to do to mingle with it is assign a value to it such as [code] System.Console.Foreground = Color.Blue; [/code] or get the value of the foreground color such as [code] Color foregroundColor = System.Console.Foreground; [/code]
