Something wrong with my toolbox

When I reset my Toolbox I get many tabs.

These are from my own projects.

In Vs2003 they were under a tab I created

One tab for each control I've programmed.

I've deleted all those tabs but if I reset they return.

It's as if VS2005 thinks they belong to the set that comes with VS.

I created a new solution and added all my projects to it.

The Toolbox looked ok.

I did a Reset of the toolbox and the extra tabs appeared.
Can anyone even guess at what I might try to fix this?

Thanks in advance

PS
If a solution contains many projects is the tool box the same no matter
which project is selected?

I uninstalled VS and reinstalled it.
Created a new solution and project
Opened the toolbox and there they were - all 25 tabs

Don't know what to do next
Thanks for any suggestions

I think that is the intended behavior. If you want them under one tab, put
them all in the same namespace.

That would explain what is happening.

Be MUCH better, I think, if only the ones referenced in the selected project
showed.

thanks

I am having trouble adding some of my existing controls to my toolbox in VS.NET. Here's what is going on: 1). I have an existing project that is a Windows Control Library with a bunch of controls. 2). I start a new solution and create an Application 3). I add the existing project with my controls to the solution, then create the reference.

I frequently define internal UserControl-derived classes in my WinForms apps: internal class MyUserControl:UserControl{ ... } I'll often need to embed these controls in a Form, whose class is contained in the same assembly as the control. As far as I know, the only way to do this using the designer is to add the UserControl-derived object

Hi, All of a sudden half of my VS.NET 2005 toolbox icons have got what looks like a chart icon instead of their usual one. What gives and why does it happen?? More importantly, how do I get the usual icons back. It feels a bit like the old ShellIconCache problem Windows used to suffer from?? Siv

Hi everybody, I've install Visual studio Team Edition for Testers on my computers, And I can't seem to find how to show the toolbox. The documenation says there should be a 'Toolbox' menuitem under 'view' menu, But I don't have it! This happens both when editing WinForms & WebForms. Thanks, Nadav

The icons next to the text description in the toolbox for all MSFT controls are the same. Right now for instance the pointer icon is beside every control(labels, buttons, etc). Which icon is displayed is different at different times that I open VS, but they are always the same instead of varied. It wasn't like that when I first installed, but I don't know what happened. Any ideas?

Hi all, This is my first time trying to creaet and use a custome Web Control in a Web Site project in ASP.NET 2.0 with VS 2005 and VB. I created the control in a separate Web Control Library project.

I compared the syntax to the VB template classs that was built and it looked very similar. I then...
