Is it possible to register a widget pointing to an ASCX instead of a compiled Type?

In ~/App_Data/Sitefinity/Configuration/ToolboxesConfig.config file.

I'm migrating a Web site from 3.7SP4 to 6.2. I have a lot of user controls (that were used in 3.7 toolbox), which after I fix the code, will be displayed correctly on the migrated pages. But users won't be able to add the control again as they won't be displayed in the toolbox.

Thanks.

Totally, just use the relative path to the ascx instead of the type in that first box...give it a name and title, and it should be in the toolbox.

Thanks Steve. The attribute "type" made me go looking for a solution elsewhere, when it was that simple.
