How do I install Visual Studio dll files?

I want use the Scintilla controls and the RadControls for Winforms, but I do not know how to incorporate the files. They are in .dll format? How do I use the controls if they are in .dll format?

In the winforms toolbox, right click and "Choose Items...", then click the browse button and find the dll. Then go through the list of controls, and check the controls that you've added (usually it will do this step for you).

Generally you would add them to the project you want to use them in, then add a reference, and then use them like any other dll.

For installing into the GAC, see this.

Right click the project, click Add Reference, go to Browse tab, find them and add them.
