If you want to place the control in your dialig box You can just use Insert ActiveX Control menu option.



Can you explain your problem in detail?

Hi!!
Thanks !!!
Can you pls give me an example of code .....with a simple example of how to insert and what code has to be written...

I just made simple activex maybe just a edit box kind and want to use that in windows aplication ..without MFC.

I have put that control on dialog same as what you said .."insert activex control". but now when I run I dont see dialog. Why???

It will be great if you can give me a sample code .... where I can set properties and handle events ...

Can you pls tell me what is a difference between Activex dll and active x control (OCX) in VB

I found one topic in MSDN for ActiveX dll ..It can be used as COM component ...but no document for ActiveX control.

Pls help...

Thanks
Naveen
