Hi,

My sup came to me today & says he wants an Outlook-like look and feel for the new app.

I found this http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=21657
which has a cool video about how to use the downloadable custom controls to create a great starting point.

The download is in C#. The custom controls are non-compiled items in the solution.

My problem is that I can not use them in my VB.NET app without compiling these controls seperately (right?) but I can't do that becasue I know much less about C# than I do about VB.NET (which isn't much). Give me this problem in VB6 and it's a done deal, but the 'net raves about how EASY it is to do this. The problem is always the same. Anything is easy once ya know how.

Aaaaaaaaaagh. Suggestions?
