Custom Toolbox

Is there a way that when VB starts up it will have all of my preferred controls already in the toolbox (such as Common Dialog etc). At the moment it only has the basic controls and I have to add the others each time I start a new project.

:confused:

No u cannot do that! This is b'coz the components are additional functionality you can use and are optional!

That's a shame because it would have been really useful. Is it not possible to create a Template project, like you would with Word etc, that would have these tools?

Yes, just create a normal project and place it in the Templates\Project subdirectory of your VB directory.

Aha, thanks Squirm - you always seem to have the answers :chuckle:
