Windows Control Library project template

how do I get that template for Windows Control Library project?

I am using 2008 c# express . I can see for new project I can choose
windows application
class library
wpf application
wpf browser application
console application
empty project

then there the other "search online templates": which led me no where but
just help
when I did search "online template,
1. I got error for MSDN provider.
6c3be1b6-fbac-430f-9a3d-63d-637519e140980

It seems the built-in documentation conflicts with some articles on msdn
about dropping the windows control library project template form visual
studio 2008 express.

Can anyone show me how to get one going? or post a project template file?

thx for quick confirmation.

so I just used class library project, added a sample user control, and use
that format on the actual class.


I did get a little message that did not make sense abut is now working
because I do have the dlls in the systems although duplicated.

---------------------------
Microsoft Visual C# 2008 Express Edition
---------------------------
The following assemblies are installed SDK assemblies but could not be
shown in the customize toolbox dialog because they are missing one or more
components. Please make sure that all necessary libraries are available:

Microsoft.Data.ConnectionUI.dll
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.dll

---------------------------
OK Help
---------------------------


the duplication are as follows:
Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.dll in visualSstudio9.., 8..., Sql...
for again for Microsoft.VisualStudio.Data.dll

I hope I will be able to ignore this glitch.. I will find out next day or so
when I tried out the new dll

You can't. Visual Studio Express editions do not support the Windows
Forms Control Library template:

See the section titled "Windows Development".

GS,

It's not a glitch. Those DLL's aren't included because they correspond
to features that are not included with the Express edition of VS.NET.

But they are included in my dot net 3 SDK. is it because I had long time
ago full version of vs 2003 and installers got update for them and hence in
dot net 3 sdk?

BTW today When I opened the same project and view the file in designer , I
no longer get any error message.

so it may not be glitch but acts like a glitch to me in the sense I am not
getting the message any more.

You are right that express edition does not make it easy to build window
control library project but then nothing physical other them time and effort
is stopping manual coding for what should be done by template.
