Hello Zorpie,
To make a user control visible in the Tool box you need to add this user =
control to the=20
toolbox to make it available to other projects and forms. To do that, =
open a windows form=20
or use an existing form. Right-click on the Windows Form tab section on =
the toolbox and click=20
on Customize Toolbox.
Clicking on Customize Toolbox opens "Customize Toolbox" dialogue box
On this window select the .NET Framework components tab which displays a =
list. Click browse=20
to add the dll of the user control we created and select the dll file =
from the bin directory of the=20
Windows Control library project. Once that is done, click OK. The dll of =
the user control gets=20
added to the .NET Framework Components. Select that and click OK. The =
user control which=20
we created gets added to the toolbox. Now this control can be used like =
other controls in the toolbox.=20
Alternatively, the user control can be added to the toolbox in another =
way. To do that, right-click on the=20
References item in the Solution Explorer window and select Add Reference =
which opens the Add Reference=20
dialogue box. Select the projects tab and double-click the User Control =
item. That adds item to the selected=20
components box at the bottom of the dialog. click OK to finish.=20
If the assembly doesn't show up in the Add/Remove components list, you =
can browse and locate it.
