Creating ActiveX control in C# or alternative

What is the best soltions for creating a graphical object in c# for use in a
C++ app?

- I heard some say you can't create an ActiveX control in dotnet and I have
heard others say you can using some non-standard sutff that may not be
supported later on in dotnet. Is it or is it not possible?

- Is it pratical to have the C++ app ( non-managed c++ btw ) send a hwnd to
c# and have the c# app overlay itself on the hwnd?
If so, does anyone have a working sample that they would be willing to share
on this group?

- other way?

thank you for the tip; however, I saw nothing on that page that refers to
creating an ActiveX control from dotnet.
