Gets or sets a value that is used to display a description in the UI.

Do not use this property to get the value of the Description property. Use the GetDescription method instead.
The Description property is typically used as a tooltip or description UI element that is bound to the member using this attribute. The Dynamic Data Edit.ascx template will display the description as a tooltip in text-entry fields. A null value or empty string is valid.
