How to hide user control from the external usage

[Guest]

Hi, everybody.

In the controls library I'm currently working on there are couple of
controls used for internal purposes only. They just a part of another
controls.
I want to hide them from the end user (developer) usage. How can I do that?

I've tryed to use Friend modifier on the user control's class, but it is
still available for adding to toolbox.

P.S. I'm using VB.Net and controls library and application forms are in the
same solution with the referance to the controls library project.

If the exe developer has the dll project in the same solution, then they can
see the stuff. If you remove the dll project (and reference the dll
directly) then you should be fine...
