Refactor from DevExpress

I searched, and went through the threads, but my situation seems a little different.  I installed refactor and the bonus.  I clicked on refactor in the add-in manager, but where is refactor.  It's not available as a toolbar or as a menu item or as a control.

Just how do I access Refactor   And where is help for it

Refactor is in my start menu.  But it seems like a ghost in my IDE, which is vs2005beta2.

    Thank you Richard, I finally figured it out.  However I've been quite ill the last several days so didn't get around to your post until now.

    Refactor! was designed to be out of your way until you need it, so the only real evidence is the addition of smart tags to code that can be refactored as you select it. 

    Refactor! watches the code you select or move over and if it can offer a refactoring it will put a smart tag near the code.  It is all context driven so if there are no options then there will be no smart tag nor menu.  You can also just regular try Ctrl~ when you think you should have something available.  Ctrl~ is the R! hot key and if there is one refactoring available it will be involked, if there are multiple you will see a manu.

    In VS2002/2003 there is no smart tag infrastructure, so for those IDEs we had to build one from scratch and you might see demos where the smart tag is a blue elipses (...), that just means the demoer is using an older IDE.
