Windows Control Library project type missing

[Mobile Boy 36]

I try to build a simple control. But I can't even start because the Windows
Control Library project type for the compact framework is missing in VS.

I saw that other people had the same problem, but I didn't find a solution
for this problem.
Can someone help ?

Best regards,
Mobile boy

There is not a project specific to building a user control on the Compact
Framework. See this FAQ entry for more details:-

You can use the Class Library project type for your needs and then derive
your control from the Control class. Please note that you will need to add
System.Drawing.dll and System.Windows.Forms.dll to the "References" list.

Thank you,
Sergiy.
