Customize toolbox during setup
-
I am creating a "Visual Studio .NET" deployment project to install some component assemblies. I would like that the setup program make the assemblies appear in the Visual Studio .NET "Customize Toolbox" dialog box.

In your deployment project for you "developer" version, create a new registry key under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\.NETFramework\AssemblyFolders. Use a unique string for the key name. The Default value should point to the directory where your assembly is located. You'll need two copies of your assembly, one in the GAC, and one in a normal directory. Hope that helps. Burt Harris
