Public Sub DrawBoard()
        '---used to store the location of the cell---
        Dim location As New Point
        '---draw the cell---
        For row As Integer = 1 To 9
            For col As Integer = 1 To 9
                location.X = col * (CellWidth + 1) + xOffset
                location.Y = row * (cellHeight + 1) + yOffset
                Dim lbl As New Label
                With lbl
                    .Name = col.ToString() & row.ToString()
                    .BorderStyle = BorderStyle.Fixed3D
                    .Height = cellHeight
                    .Width = CellWidth
                    .BackColor = DEFAULT_BACKCOLOR
                    .Location = location
                    .Tag = "1"
                    AddHandler lbl.Click, AddressOf Cell_Load
                End With

Quite eluding
Either you've created a winforms project and written a class that inherits System.Web.UI.Control.
Or you've created a webforms project, added reference and Imports for System.Windows.Forms.
Both wrong, which is it?

Winforms and Webforms projects are different types, first is for Windows client applications, the other for ASP.Net server applications. I don't know what these projects are called in full version Studio or what Studio edition you have, but for Express editions you can only create winforms project types with Visual Basic 2005 Express and only webforms project types with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express. Create a correct project type for web or desktop and you'll be sorted out.
