Sub ObjectExample3(ByVal dte As DTE2)  

    ' Retrieve and display the text editor color setting for   
    ' code comments.  
    Dim props As Properties = _  
        dte.Properties("FontsAndColors", "TextEditor")

    MsgBox(item.Name & " items have an OLE_COLOR value of " & _  
        item.Foreground.ToString() & vbCrLf)  

End Sub  

public void ObjectExample(DTE2 dte)  
{  
    // Retrieve and display the text editor color setting for   
    // code comments.  
    Properties props =   
        dte.get_Properties("FontsAndColors", "TextEditor");  
    Property prop = props.Item("FontsAndColorsItems");  
    FontsAndColorsItems items = (FontsAndColorsItems)prop.Object;  
    ColorableItems item = items.Item("Comment");  

    MessageBox.Show(item.Name + " items have an OLE_COLOR value of " +   
        item.Foreground.ToString() + "\n");  
}  

Remarks

If you use Property.Value instead of Property.Object, then the Property object returns a Properties collection instead of an Object value. That is, the IDispatch that would be returned via Property.Object is wrapped so that Property.Value returns a nested Properties collection.
