I think I have asked this before. But I cannot see it on Google. I cannot
wrap m,y brain around this.
There is an ASP page. It refers to an ActiveX control which is delivered to
the client.
<OBJECT ID="CRViewer"
CLASSID="CLSID: C4847596-972C-11D0-9567-00A0C9273C2A"
WIDTH=100% HEIGHT=95%
codebase="Clien tBin/activexviewer.c ab#Version=8,5, 0,217" VIEWASTEXT>
<PARAM NAME="EnableRef reshButton" VALUE=0>
<PARAM NAME="EnableGro upTree" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="DisplayGr oupTree" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnablePri ntButton" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnableExp ortButton" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnableDri llDown" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnableSea rchControl" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnableAni mationControl" VALUE=1>
<PARAM NAME="EnableZoo mControl" VALUE=1>
</OBJECT>
So there is a CAB file called ActiveXViewer which contains CRViewer.dll. IE
somehow knows to find the necessary component(s) and if not found download
from the server. How does it do this? Look to see if the specified classid
is registered? If the cab is updated, how does the new package get down to
the client?
I have a total mind block when it comes to ActiveX controls on the client in
a web app.
Thanks.

codebase tells IE where to get the component.

Yep.

That's where Version=8,5,0,2 17 comes in. If it sees a newer version, IE
gets it.

Hi.
I've never created an ActiveX control before, so I know little about what it
is capable of and what its limitations are. My problem is this: I have to
create a way to send multiple documents from the web server to a printer on
the user's network. The way it works today the user has to manually
download each document and send it to his printer, but now they want me to
create an automated process.
Will I be able to download documents...

Is this possible through .NET and ActiveX delivered via ASP.NET through a
