custom web control 1

[kurie]

Im would like to create a web custom control,c#,
My problem is that i dont seem to see the design window of the control, its only the c# code that i see.
im using framework 2.0 and Visual studio 2005.
here are the steps im following to create the custom control

1.On the File menu, point to New, and then click Project.
The New Project dialog box appears.

2.In the Project Types pane, choose either Visual Basic Projects or Visual C# Projects.
3. Select Web Control Library in the Templates pane.
Change the Name to CustomLabel and click OK.
The new project is created, and WebCustomControl1 opens in the Code Editor.

4.Code for a custom Label control is included in the Web Control Library template by default. This is the control you will use in this walkthrough.

I don't think there is a WYSIWYG for custom control libraries. A control will have members like RenderHTML(TextWriter writer) and some others.
You need to implement these members and write the html to the writer.

There are tutorials online about how to create custom controls. These should provide more information on the steps to take.
