How to Reuse Classes and Controls

I'm new to VB.Net and have been unable to find a "how to"
description about organizing and reusing classes and
controls in multiple applications. Any references you
could provide would be welcome.

Thanks, GrandpaB

You can create your own class library, by selecting file => new project =>
Visual Basic Projects => Class Library
Here you can create your much used controls and then refernce the class
librarys' dll from you other projects to use these controls. You can also
add the controls created in the class library to your toolbox by right
clicking a tab in the toolbox then Add/Remove items. Browse to the class
librarys' dll and all controls from the class library will appear in your
toolbox. But I'm sure if you google you'll find a lot more info.
