Hey,
OWC doesn't show in the toolbox like user controls etc... You have to
add it to your project by adding a reference. Go to project > add
reference > COM > (find) OWC [whatever version you use]. Then in the
files you need it, do the import OWC[VERSION] and use it.

Thank you for quick reply.
But for visual studio 2003, it does show in toolbox. It has a GUI which I
can drag and drop.
So in 2005, there is no drag and drop for O.W.C?

That is odd, it should show up in the COM component area. Scroll down
there and see if it can find the DLL.

i mean you should try to "add" it to your toolbox,and go into the com
tab and find it. Then it should be accessible.

I am having the same problem. You can see the references in the com tab and
select them fine, but they do not appear in the toolbox. Adding a project
reference in the solution explorer builds an interop assembly, but no
toolbox controls.
