    [RESOLVED] Accessing properties of controls

    Hi,
    Is there anyway that I can access all the properties of a control(activex or normal) during runtime and get their values. I dont want to speicify the property name. I should get the all the property names and their values. It is something like reflection namespace in VB.NEt. Is it posiible in vb6.0

    Thanx

    Not that I'm aware of... I've only ever tried it in .NET... so I don't know for sure if there is a way in VB6 (never had a reason to).

    You'll have to make use of the TypeLib Information Library in tblinf32.dll
