Adding webcontrol to a Winform (how?)

[Ubergeek]

I'm trying to creat a little browser executable, I have added the
WebControl to my toolbox, and I have a WinForm ready to place the
control on, but the control is disabled - what gives?

Simple induction tells me that maybe, Webcontrols can only be used on
WebForms - but if this is the case, how can I create an executable using
a web form? I thought webforms were run on the server side and displayed
in a browser?. please advise

WebForms are the "techie" word for ASP.NET web pages, and they only run
correctly when served by an IIS webserver via an HTTP url (e.g.
http://mysite.com/mywebform.aspx )

If you want to display web "content" in a windows form, take a look at the
WebBrowser control.
