Com interop, reflection & other problems...

Francesco Mancini

Hi all
I'm working with c# and I need to load (runtime) a COM ActiveX (written in
VB6, I think...); and this is not a problem (with Reflection class)...
the problem is that this ocx has a menu, that I'm not able to retrieve in
any way. Someone have some ideas?
Thanks, bye

Francesco,

Is this a visual component (I think it is because you said that it has a
menu). If so, why not add it to your toolbox (right click on the toolbox to
select it), and then add it to your project? You will be able to access it
through COM interop, and it will create the appropriate wrapper assemblies
for you.

Hope this helps.
