In VS 2003 there was a template if custom web controls. In VS 2005 that template is missing. Where is the documentation for building custome web controls for .net 2.0? -- Arne Garvander (I program VB.Net for fun and C# to get paid.)
Building controls in .NET 2.0 has not changed too much. There are a few new base classes plus designer additions which help considerably writing high-quality control designers. What comes to VS2005 it just doesn't have separate web control library project, now you just start a new class library project and add the needed references and get going.
