    Visual Studio designer deletes my user control

    I'm trying to put my own user control into a form, but the Visual Studio designer removes it whenever I enter design mode. The user control is part of the same project. I know I could make it a dll, but I want to change it as I go along, so I would like a way to make the designer just leave it alone.

    Can this be done?

    I think it might be possible to have two projects and rebuild the whole solution, and VS will use the new version of the DLL. If you have any tutorials about making controls and components, I'd like to know because I've run into confusing troubles.
