Map control disappeared from Toolbox

Hi

I've been developing a map web app, closed vs2008 down, and when it restarted the mapcontrol was missing. I can't seem to get it to add.

 

The app works fine as the reference to the dll is there, but I cannot create a new map.

I have tried browsing to the dll to add to the toolbox, but if fails to load.

 

Thanks

Re:Map control disappeared from Toolbox

The DLL needs to be installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC) in order to add it to the Visual Studio Toolbox.

Type the following into the Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt to install the DLL in the GAC:

gacutil -i Simplovation.Web.Maps.VE.dll

This Solution doesn't work. VS2008 shutdown and I'm no longer available to add any Control to the toolbox. What can I do know ?

Re:Map control disappeared from Toolbox

In order to add the Map control to your Visual Studio toolbox, you'll need to register the DLL in the GAC. Also, do not forget to copy the DLL into the Bin folder when uploading your application up on a server for hosting.

If this doesn't help solve your problem, could you please re-explain what you are experiencing?
