UserControls and ToolBox

Hi,

I have some trouble with a C# controls dll and the Visual Studio ToolBox.
( Visual Studio 2003, .NET 1 ).

The Situation is:
I have one c# dll with some usercontrols in it.
I have another project which references this dll and uses some controls of it.

Now the usercontrols in the dll doesn't automatically appear in the toolbox.
So i added them manually by specifying directly the controls dll.

Now the problems began.
When compiling the project, an error came up, because the referenced dll couldn't be copied by the other project ( I think the dll is still loaded by the IDE ).

Any ideas or experiences with this problem ?
Thanks,
Matze

I had this once. but not anymore in VS2K5 - now usercontrols automatically appear in the toolbox.

You should try reference the project instead of DLL. Or compile each separately

Hi FoodBard,

thanks for reply.
I already references the projects.
I think the problem is the IDE, which loads the dlls and don't releases it.
