I mean here is what I thought I would be able to do: 1) load the the class library. 2) using the form designer, drop the class or object onto my form. 3) right click on the object and then see what properties exist and then set them accordingly. Is that possible?

Yes. Once you drop the object onto a form, you can open the Properties sheet, click on the object on your form and see what is available to you. You can also view/modify Classes in the Class Browser or the Project Manager.
