Why would a toolbar be found in the toolbox?


>If you used it in a project (and it has a valid namespace), it should get added to the toolbox automatically after a build if you set:
>
>Tools > Options > Windows Forms Designer > General : AutoToolboxPopulate to true
>
>If you right click on the toolbox and select "show all" does it show up then?
>
>If that doesn't work, try:
>
>Build your project that contains your custom controls to make sure it compiles and then right click on the toolbox and select "choose items." From there browse to the dll you just compiled that has your toolbar in it and select it.
