Hi,

2 Days ago i wrote a post about "how to add programmatically custom
control on Toolbox".
I'm still blocked with this issue.

Is there someone who did it under C#.NET 2005 and 2008 ?

thanks a lot,

RAF

If you are talking about Windows Forms, you can create a userControl and add
it to the Toolbox via "Add/Remove Items" context menu on a tab in the Toolbox.
If you refer to ASP.NET custom controls, same way.

Hi Peter,

No it's not exactly true.
In fact, i've developed my own control and when i will sell it, i will
allow end user/customer to install it on their own MS Visual studio
environment.

For that i would like to create a small exe which will install the
control (included into a dll file) to their Toolbox.
therefore, i would like to create a TAB with a particular name (in my
example : RogTech) and to add into this tab, all my controls (or items).

for now, i'm able to create this tab, but it always includes only the
"Pointer" item... it never has my control and i do not know why :-(
