Has anyone tried this or knows if it's possible It works fine when I point directly to a .xaml file, but when I generate the XAML dynamically it gives an error in IIS7 and it closes the WPF host when running from the VS builtin Web Server.

When I create a new 'WPF Application' project and attempt to add it to the toolbox, I receive an error: "There are no components in 'C:\Documents and Settings...WPFControlLibrary1.dll' that can be placed on the toolbox.' I can add it in code, of course, but was hoping that wasn't the only way: dockPanel1.

I'm primarily interested in this because I want to create a custom control that would exhibit similar behavior; if I can do it with a ListBox, then I know I can do it with my custom control. Normally you might set a ListBox's items like this: < ListBox > < ListBoxIt
