Can anyone tell me or point me to documentation on how to
register a custom data provider?

Thanks,
Kent
 
Hi Kent,

I'm not very clear about your question. Are you wondering about how to
implement a custom data provider or how to show it on the Toolbox at the
left of the IDE?

If you need to know how to implement a data provider, here's a link for
your reference:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/cpguide/htm
l/cpconimplementingnetdataprovider.asp

If you want to know how to add the control to the Toolbox, I think you can
just right click on Toolbox and choose Add/Remove Items.

Hi Kent,

Since you're developing a .NET custom data provider, your code will be
built into a .NET assembly(PE file. generally .dll or .exe). A .NET
assembly needn't to be registed before using. Since you're developing a
class library, I believe that it has been built into a .dll file. When you
need to use it in another project, just copy the .dll file to the project
folder and use add reference on the project menu to include it in the
current project.

If anything is unclear, please feel free to reply to the post.
