      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionsCollectionConverter" /> class converts an <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.ExpressionBindingCollection" /> to a string for the property-editing grid at design time, which always appears as an empty string ("").</para>
      <para>A designer host, such as vsprvslong, uses the <see cref="T:System.Web.Compilation.ExpressionBuilder" /> and <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionEditor" /> class implementations with the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionsCollectionEditor" /> and <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.ExpressionsCollectionConverter" /> classes to set the expression bindings for control properties at design time, and the <see cref="T:System.Web.UI.Design.ControlPersister" /> to persist the expressions for run time. Expression strings reference a localizable resource, an application setting, a connection string, or a custom expression type. The expression string is bound to the control property at design time, and then used at run time to determine the value for the property. </para>
