How to Add Smart Tags to my .net component?

Answer 1

I used http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/default.aspx?q=smart+tag+windows+forms+designer.

As a result, I found Walkthrough: Adding Smart Tags to a Windows Forms Component.

I'm sure you're capable of doing the same search, and finding the same article. Why didn't you do the same search?
