People have been asking how do you use dotnetbar or how do you get those fancy GUI's in Forge or Xbox Live Profile Modder. What I am talking about is

Now once you have it installed lets create a new project

Right click then Add Tab

Name your tab DotNetBar or something like that

Now, right click it then "Choice Items"

Now the part were you really need to use your eyes
So what you wanna do it look for the DevComponets.Dotnetbar in the Namespace line spaces, just look at the picture. Make sure you check all of the DevComponets.Dotnetbar

Now time to add the form border
Go to Project>Add Refernce

Now Select The following

Now go save your project, and remeber where you saved it as. (file>Save as)
Goto where you saved your project at, then find Form1.Designer.VB, double click on that and open it up.
Find this

and replace it with
Code:
[SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]Inherits[/COLOR][/SIZE][/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2] DevComponents.DotNetBar.Office2007Form[/SIZE]
So it should look like this

When you build your project and open it, you will not see the fancy form border. Now I will teach you how to, which is really easy!
Goto your properties window in VB then find the drop down box and find Form1 or whatever your form is named. See

What do you mean "other controls"?

OH
Yeah, the only other one I know of though is DevExpress

If anyone wants me to post a tut for that - I'd be more than happy to do so.
