How to insert the Axwebbrowser in Visual Studio 2008

Apr 2 2009 12:25 PM
Hi All,
I am kind of a newbie to programming. I have a serious concern and I have been trying to solve a problem since three days. Some of the forms posted here helped me but not to the fullest extent. I am trying to use mshtml, AxShDocvw.dll and ShDocVw.dll to parse an html file and to show all the anchor tags in it. This is where I saw how to work with it http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa290341(VS.71).aspx,
but here is my problem. There are a lot of forums which talk about adding a Axwebbrowser control to the windows form. They talk about going to Tools, right clicking on it. Going to Customize Tools Tab and then select on COM components and add a web browser control. But my problem is, I am using Visual Studio 2008, and I really don't have such an option available. I have tried using aximp, created the assemblies, but still what I see in my toolbox is a webbrowser control, not a Axwebbrowser control. How can I add this control in the latest Visual Studio 2008 version. Please help me. I would greatly appreciate your help.
