How to access a custom collection property by its property name
public class Property : IComparable<Property>
{
   public string Name;
   public string Value;
   public string Group;
   public string Id;
   ...
   ...

   public int CompareTo(Property other)
   {
      return Name.CompareTo(other.Name);
   }
}

Public List<Property> properties;

var myColor = properties["Color"].Value;

var props = properties.ToDictionary( x => x.Name );
Property prop = props["some name"];

public class PropertyCollection : List<Property>
{
    public Property this[string name]
    {
        get
        {
            foreach (Property prop in this)
            {
                if (prop.Name == name)
                    return prop;
            }
            return null;
        }
    }
}

PropertyCollection col = new PropertyCollection();
col.Add(new Property(...));
Property prop = col["some name"];

Dictionary<string, Property> properties = new Dictionary<string, Property>();

//you add it like that:
properties[prop.Name] = prop;

//then access it like that:
var myColor = properties["Color"];
