VS 2008 toolbox

Post by TillmanZ » Tue 12 Feb 2008 17:59

Hi there,

after installation of the latest 4.x MyDirect libs I did not see any toolbox entries.
I have manually created a tab and have used the "choose items" to select all assemblies belonging to the corelab namespace (since I have 3.5x installed on the same system I have only selected the 4.x dlls).
To my surprise only the MySqlDataSource shows up in the newley created tab and not all the other entries like MySqlConnection, etc.

Am I missing something?

Thanks for your support.

Make sure you're in Component Designer view.
Do not confuse with Designer view.
To switch between views use context menu of .aspx file in Solution Explorer.
This relates to Web projects only.

That did the trick!
Thank you very much for the quick response.

I wasn't even aware that VS2008 introduced the new component view.

Cheers,

Tillman
