Default Add Custom Control to Outlook form

Hi,

I have a custom control dll and I am wondering how can I make this
control appear on the toolbox in the design mode of an outlook form.

I have done 'regasm mycontrol.dll' but it didn't seem to work.

Thanks,
Justin

I have also tried to add the control to the VBA toolbox first, but it
doesn't appear there either.

It would most likely have to be an OCX I'd think. Also, most custom controls
don't work right or expose all of their properties or events when placed on
an Outlook form and many will cause Outlook or the form to crash.
