Does your control have a parameterless constructor?

I had this problem when attempting to use a WPF control written by another member of my team. The only constructor was one with parameters. When I added a new constructor with no parameters the control appeared in the Toolbox.

Do you have this setting to true?

Tools > Options > Windows Forms Designer > General : AutoToolboxPopulate

If you do, you could also try this after building/rebuilding your user control project: Right click Toolbox > Choose Items... > Browse > UserControl.dll
