Hi there,I am wondering if anyone can direct me to a good site that has
good sample code examples of using VB 6.0 DHTML.
I want to be able to use dhtml display pages containing Query
Filter controls (Combo Box, Radio Buttons, List Boxes etc)and
populate a bound grid (TrueGrid or datagrid) and also be able to
graph or chart the displayed data. I would like to use ADO as
this is a pilot project where we are redesigning/redeploying
other vb6.0 apps already developed on the corporate intranet.
Is VB 6.0 DHTML the best solution?
What Chart control (compatible with IE 4 or 5)?What Grid control?
Where can I find good sample code to review?
Any other suggestions or tools? What would you recommend?
Would sure appreciate your help as I've spent two days surfing
and still have found nothing concrete.Regards,Mark

if you want to transfer a VB app to the web and want to change as little as possible, write an ActiveX DocObject.
You are restricted to IE 4 and above as your target browser.

MY personal solution would look like this:
- throw away your VB UI
- rewrite in HTML
- use HTML and ASP (Active Server pages)
- use VB-ActivexDLLs on your server for business logic and Database access.
