>Yes, create a separate project to hold all the controls you are subclassing. Then you would add a reference to the project in all of your applications (projects) that use those controls.

>>>Hi Shawn,

>>>You need to subclass .NET controls in code and not via the designer. Just create a new C# or VB.NET class and inherit from the control you want to inherit from. To use the control, you would add it to the toolbox and then drag it onto a form. Not as easy as FoxPro but you will get the same end result.
