A computer system, a method, and a computer application that creates a view of the properties of a set of objects that have a common property adapter. A user may select some or all of the objects and some or all of the properties to include in the view created by the object set property view. Upon selection of an object by a user, the method and application retrieve the children of the object using a preexisting content adapter. The object set property viewer then ascertains if the children have the same property adapter, also preexisting. If so, the property adapter is retrieved, along with the associated property descriptors and functions of the adapter. The object set property viewer creates a new view, preferably in the form of a table wherein the rows (columns) are of the children objects and the columns (rows) are of the properties of interest. Because of inheritance, and functionality associated with the property is also inherited so that the object set property view may permit a user to sort, align, and/or edit the values of the properties.
