Hi,

Apply the ToolBoxIcon attribute to the component class.

Add a bitmap to the resources and set it build action to "embedded resource"

Then use a ToolboxBitmap attribute to set up the bitmap for your component.
Read up on the toolbox bitmap carefully in MSDN because you have to get the
fully qualified name of the bitmap in the resources correct.

Sorry it is indeed ToolBoxBitmap, not ToolBoxIcon. Thanks, Bob!
