Re: ASP.NET 2.0 User Control that implements a template

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Thank you for the response. I am only trying to implement an example from MSDN

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/cpguide/html/cpconCreatingTemplatedUserControl.asp?frame=true

The issue is not the implementation but rather displaying the aspx page in
design mode.
