Simulate MS-Word TABLE in VB6

I need to create an ActiveX Control in VB6 that simulates the TABLE of MS-Word document.

It should support adding or deleting cells/columns/rows in the table apart from being able to do merge/split cells, span rows/columns e.t.c.

In addition each cell of the table should act as host to accomodate controls like command button and textboxes inside them.

I am not supposed to use any 3rd party controls or any other methods that are discouraged in the context of transformaing VB projects to VB.Net project.

I need constructive ideas as to how should I go about doing it.
