I want a Base Class to derive my other web controls from, but I dont want it
to appear in the toolbox, I think there must be a class attribute for this,
can anyone tell me the exact syntax I need to use for this.

I have written it in C#

Hi,

ToolboxItemAttribute is what you are looking for. The usage to hide the
control from the toolbox is shown below.

[System.ComponentModel.ToolboxItem(false)]
protected class MyControl : .....
{

}

Hi,

You are always welcome. I also responded to one of your other questions
[Document Dom / Table Events Problems]. Most probably, you haven't seen it
yet because it was 7 days old. If you are still looking for a solution, it
is waiting there for you.
