I have been registering controls like the following:

<%@ Register TagPrefix="rad" Namespace="Telerik.WebControls" Assembly="RadToolbar.NET2" %>
<%@ Register TagPrefix="telerik" Namespace="Telerik.WebControls" Assembly="RadComboBox.Net2" %>
<%@ Register Assembly="RadInput.Net2" Namespace="Telerik.WebControls" TagPrefix="rad" %>

Telerik online demos instead use one register for all controls:
<%@ Register TagPrefix="telerik" Namespace="Telerik.Web.UI" Assembly="Telerik.Web.UI" %>

1. How do you set up a Visual Studio project to use this type registration?
2. Is the way I am doing it, registering individual controls, bad?
3. Using my current scheme, now I want to use RadTooltip but I don't know how to register it.
Because I cannot find a dll for RadTooltip in:

C:\Program Files\telerik\RadControls for ASP.NET Q1 2008\NET2\bin

So how may I register it? And how may I add it to my Visual Studio toolbox?

Hello John Davis,

We offer two different suites - RadControls for ASP.NET and ajax-based RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX(Prometheus). When you use the first suite, you should add a separate dll for each control in the bin folder. This is improved in the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX (Prometheus) and all the offered 23 controls are included in a single dll file - Telerik.Web.UI.dll.

This being said you should install the RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX suite and then you should only register the Telerik.Web.UI dll file. You were not able to find a dll for RadToolTip because it is part only of the ajax-based suite.

Kind regards,

Thanks. Sorry to bother you again.

I thought I already downloaded RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX.
I downloaded RadControls_Q1_2008_dev.exe (4/21/2008)
After installation I have this folder:

C:\Program Files\telerik\RadControls for ASP.NET Q1 2008\NET2\bin

This folder includes separate dlls for each tool and an xml file for each tool. I do NOT see Telerik.Web.UI.dll.
For example RadAjax.Net2.dll is version 1.8.5.0

So, should I delete all these dll from this folder and delete all references to them from the Visual Studio Project and reinstall?
Can you detect what I did wrong in trying to install RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX?
