Ok, I looked in C# projects, and I don't see DLL.

Remember, I'm REALLY a newbie at this

>>>You can't do it visually, but you can still put these kinds of sub-classes in your ToolBox in order to drag them onto your form.
>>>
>>>Basically, you'll want a class library that contains your sub-classed UI controls, like textbox, button, etc. Something like this:
>>>

>>>using System;
>>>using System.Drawing;
>>>using System.Collections;
>>>using System.ComponentModel;
>>>using System.Windows.Forms;
>>>using System.Data;
>>>
>>>namespace MyCompany.WinUI.MyClasses
>>>{
>>>	public class MyComboBox : System.Windows.Forms.ComboBox
>>>	{
>>>		// code here
>>>	}
>>>
>>>	public class MyTextBox : System.Windows.Forms.TextBox
>>>	{
>>>		// code here
>>>	}
>>>
>>>	public class MyButton : System.Windows.Forms.Button
>>>	{
>>>		// code here
>>>	}
>>>}
>>>

>>>That's it. These controls can't be sub-classed visually, but as you can see, it's easy enough to do it in code. I have all the basic controls sub-classed in one class library file. Once they're added to the ToolBox, then can be dragged onto any design surface in the IDE.
>>>
>>>To add to the ToolBox, do the following: When you have the IDE open in the designer view (not the code view), go to the ToolBox, right-click anywhere and choose the Add/Remove Items, click on Browse and find the .DLL where your sub-classed controls are (you obviously needed to have compiled the class library after you created it). That's it ... they'll then be added to your ToolBox.
