The journey toward a functional and popular control, the OutlookBar, is now underway. In the next two chapters control development is the primary focus. The OutlookBarTab component serves as the basis for building the larger control. Developing controls requires defining the various components and building small blocks from which the main control will be constructed. In this chapter several ideas have been re-enforced, and some new ideas have been introduced. The process of building controls is a fantastic journey, and it has just begun.
