Question about a control written in cs

[Y]

I need to use the following control to add persistance to my
form position on the screen. I don't know how to add this
control to my project as it was written in cs, any ideas?
(also, why wouldn't it compile, and complain about the following)

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/miscctrl/RealPosition.aspx

Cryptographic failure while signing assembly
'C:\cp\RealPosition\obj\Release\RestoreState.dll' -- 'Error reading key file
'd:\Igorkey.snk' -- The system cannot find the file specified. '

If there is a download for the source, simply remove (or fix) the
strong name on the dll and the compiler error should go away. Then you
can just reference the dll normally.

IIRC it goes something like this:

Toolbox --> Choose Items --> Click on the dll

How do I add it to the project, I tried all sort of ways, but I don't get

it in the toolbox

IIRC it goes something like this:

Toolbox --> Choose Items --> Click on the dll

I don't follow, is Toolbox a top level menu of Microsoft Development
Environment 7.1? What does "-->" mean?

I did it this way:
Project --> Add Reference --> Projects (tab) --> Browse --> (select dll)

Then I looked in the toolbox, couldn't find a tool with a green left arrow

If I open Igor's project I see the control in the form, but again it is not
there in the toolbox

Sorry, but I don't understand where to find it

right click in the toolbox --> Choose Items --> Click on the dll

No, it's the toolbox (the thing you asked about adding the control
to).

What does "-->" mean?

I did it this way:
Project --> Add Reference --> Projects (tab) --> Browse --> (select dll)

Now I'm confused, you say you don't know what "-->" means, and then in
the next sentence you use it?

Gillard has explained what to do in an even simpler form.

It doesn't work, I initially received an error dialog from the ide, I didn't
read it properly, but now it doesn't come up any more, so if there is
an issue I won't know about it. The control is not there. In the original
project Igor add's the control to a test program as a project rather
than a dll, maybe it must be done this way, I will check it and let you
know what I found out.
