    That's a good solution, but did you know you can just drag the DLL from Windows Explorer onto the toolbar?

    Its much easier just to drag the DLL over and drop it into the new tab you've created.  Faster, too.   Also, realize that the whole package we think of as "Atlas" is two parts:  The core (Microsoft.Web.Atlas.DLL, which I believe installs under program filesmicrosoft asp.netAtlasv2.0.50727Atlas) and the Atlas control toolkit (Download, extract to some directory, load atlasconroltoolkit.sln and build the release version and the DLL will be under atlas control toolkitAtlasControlToolkitbinRelease).  In Joe Stagner's last Atlas webcast, he suggested creating a tab for each; Microsoft AJAX and Microsoft AJAX Toolkit.  Drop Atlas.DLL into the first tab, AtlasControlToolkit.dll into the second.
