Drawing Shapes in designtime "WinForms"

[wstevens]

Hi all

I have a stupid question. If I remember correctly in the old Visual Basic 5 or 6 and in MS Access forms there was a toolbar to draw basic shapes for example a line, box or circle in design time.

I have looked through my toolbars in VS2005 Pro and cannot find anything like that except for Image Editor, which is greyed out.

Is there a toolbar with the basic shapes I can use to draw basic items.

Thanks in advance

Visual Basic Power Packs 2.0 and 3.0 has Line and Shape controls. More complex drawing can be done with Graphics class and Paint event of controls.
