adding a component

[Jeroen Ceuppens]

Hi,
I want to add a component of these class :

public class OptiePanel : System.Componen tModel.Componen t

I put on this class in a constructor with in it lost of things to add like:
this.Container. Add(labelHoofd) ;

So if I want to add an object of this class in the main form, how should I
do it?

Because if I do this it will not work:

OptiePanel panelke=new OptiePanel();

this.Container. Add(panelke); // this is in a window form

My goal is to make a lots of components, so they can be added when the are
needed

THx

Jeroen,

Are these meant to have a visual representation? If so, then you might
want to derive from Control instead of deriving from Component. Objects
derived from Component don't necessarily have a visual representation.

Hope this helps.
