How to stop a Control from showing in the Toolbox

Guest

I've developed a C# Windows Control Library project (using Visual Studio
2003). It contains a public component class and a public control class. When
I add a reference to the compiled project dll in a new project and add it in
the ToolBox, both the component class and the control class are displayed in
the toolbox.

The control class should never been displayed in the ToolBox.

How can I stop the control class being displayed in the ToolBox?

Thanks for your help.

Add the following attribute to the class definition:

[ToolboxItem( false )]
