Hi
I'm trying to create a composite control to be used on a ToolStrip,
consisting of a ToolStripComboBox and a ToolStripButton. It's going to be a
control used to search for text in a grid control on a WinForm.
I've got it working fine on a single form but now want to reuse this
functionality on other forms. Usually this would be a simple matter of
creating a UserControl, however a ToolStripComboBox cannot be placed on a
UserControl.
I've looked into the ToolStripControlHost however this only accepts a single
control in its constructor.
I need to make sure that I can handle the Enter and Leave events for the
composite control so that I can display / hide text "Type text to find".
What is the best way to create this control? Ideally I'd like to avoid
having to do my own Paint code etc.
thanks
Richard
