Panel with Header

[Swami]

I am trying to create a control that is basically a panel with a header. I
would like to be able to do the following:

- to place this in the controls toolbar
- use it at design time
- drag/drop this control and add other controls in the content area of this
panel
- change the text of the panel header.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Thanks...

If I created this as a user control, is there a way to add this to the tool
box, so that I can simply drag and drop other controls onto it?

This free control meets all of the requirements you listed:

Thanks...actually I came across this panel earlier. My question, is this
customizable in the sense, can I choose to remove the "collapse" button, and
change the border and back colors, etc, and make the header color different
that the main content?

Thanks!

Ah, I suspected there were further requirements that you weren't telling us
about

Most of those things can be adjusted via the public properties of the
control. The remaining features can be had by altering the free source
code.
