I have been looking to no avail for a book, site or something that explains
the processes involved with writing my own custom components such as grids,
textboxes and such and then registering with environment so that I can
choose from the list of components.

Can anyone point me to a resource or book I can get that explains these
processes?

Thanks,

glenn

I have also been looking for one of these also, to no avail, there are
some books out there that cover bits and pieces of component
development, Chris Sells book for example, but nothing that covers the
design time issues in real Depth, things like custom designers, and
property editors, CodeDOM designtime serialization etc.

I have basically had to use MSDN and other web resources, also I do use
some DevExpress components and they ship their source with the product,
this has been a valuable resource as well.

I think also, that there is some view that Windows Forms has a bit of a
short life expectancy, so it may be that we don't get to see one of
these books on the horizon.

It would be great if someone out there can say, Tim you have it wrong,
all you need is "insert Name of Book here"......

Cheers Tim.
