Save a backup of your dsw file just in case. Open your dsw file into a text editor. At the bottom is a section marked:
Package=<3>
{{{
{8E27C92B-1264-101C-8A2F-040224009C02} <- You will have lots of different hex numbers
}}}

The hex number sections refer to the ActiveX controls. Remove the ones you don't want - or remove them all. With all of them removed the section should appear:

Package=<3>
{{{
}}}

Save this as a text file and then open it in DevStudio. If you have removed all these ActiveX controls then you can add back in the ones you require. Note: this does not affect the standard controls on the toolbar.
