Creating ActiveX Controls
-
I have a MDI application that I have created that is an Editor with special functionality. I am now being asked to create this application as a an ActiveX control to be used from within another application. I have made several ActiveX DLLs before but have only played around with a couple ActiveX Control tutorials. Now that I am actually starting to recreate my application as a control I don't see exactly how I should do this. My Editor application has a MDI form that contains a menu control and uses another form to create a blank document each time the user selects file|new. Other forms are basically dialogs that get called from other menu options. I understand that I can create a UserControl Object and add other ActiveX controls to it (such as my menu control) but how do I emulate the same effects as a MDI form? Can this even be done as a control? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Debi
