Hello,

When using "customize toolbox" to add a control to the vs toolbox, is there
a way to have my custom control listed in the .net components tab without
having to navigate to the actuall dll? It is in GAC now, and I thought that
alone would be enough but it's not.

A command-line utility maybe? Thank you

I've found the easiest way to do this is to install your assemblies into the
Public Assemblies folder (on my Win2k machine, it is C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE\PublicAssemblies).
