Did you make it a UserControl, Control, or inherit the TabControl?
Control = non-visual base for components
UserControl = visible base for components
TabControl = inherits TabControl and modifies it.\

Don't you right click on the tool box, go to choose tools/items, then select your .dll file?

It Inerhits original tabcontrol and then modified....
When importing it then it says there is nothing to import into the toolbox anyway....
