Description Attribute in Class Library (DLL) ?

How do you get the description to display in a calling application when you use a description attribute on your properties in a class library (DLL)?

I'm using the following code in my dll (class library)...
Imports System.ComponentModel

<Description("Operator Name Property."), Category("Action")> _

Public Property OperatorName() As String

Get

Try

Return m_OperatorName

Catch ex As Exception

ProcessException(ex)

Return Nothing

End Try

End Get

Set(ByVal value As String)

Try

m_OperatorName = value

Catch ex As Exception

ProcessException(ex)

End Try

End Set

End Property

is there another namespace to use or what is the story to get this to work?
