How to create tray for controls?

1.Create control in VS2005 that goes in component tray

VS2005:

I want to create a control which stays in the tray so I created it 
inheriting Component but even though it compiles it does not show up in the 
toolbox.

If I inherit from System.Windows.Forms.Control, it shows up with properties 
correctly in property window.

How can I create a control in the Component Tray (like the timer)?

2.Accessing controls that are attached to a tray control

I am new to Visual Basic .NET, so some of the terminology that I use here
may not be accurate, but I am confident that someone out there will be able
to fill in the gaps.

I am creating a non-visible/tray control that monitors other custom controls
for changes (among other things).  One of the monitored controls is a new
textbox that adds functionality to the standard textbox, and includes a
variable that points to the monitoring tray control... it works just like
the imagelist that is attached to any control that supports imagelists, such
as a treeview or listview.  Everything is working the way I would like at
this point -- Custom event handling, reading/writing properties, etc.

Now I would like to iterate through the list of controls attached to the
tray control.  Using the imagelist as an example, I want to loop through a
collection of all the controls that are attached to (are using) a certain
imagelist.

I haven't found a way to do this using the tray control object.  One thing
that I considered was iterating through the form's controls and checking for
the tray control property, but this seems like a slow and undesirable
solution.

Is there a better way to efficiently access the controls attached to a tray
control in the way that I am describing?

Thank you,
