Using new control that inherits from Form

I have created a new control that inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form.

I just added a few new properties that I want on all my forms..nothing
fancy.

I saved this project...let's call it MyForm.

How do I actually create new instances of MyForm in my application? I
know that if I were to create new custom controls based on other
controls, such as as textbox, I can just reference them and add them to
my toolbox. However, because I'm trying to replace a
System.Windows.Form.Form with MyForm, it's not really applicable to
have it in the toolbox. I created a reference to MyForm in my project,
but I'm still not certain how to actually use it.

In other words, when I right-click in Solution Explorer and go to Add,
I want to be able to select MyForm instead of Windows Form...

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Steve

For the assistance of others, who might not know, you should post the
solution that you found.
