ActiveX creation - C# / C Sharp

Kenny ODell

Can you create ActiveX controls in C#? I want to make a control that can be
used by both VB 6.0 and VB .NET and C# developers. Can I write in C# or must
I write in VB 6.0? I realize that more and more folks are moving to .NET,
but industry has a lot of people on 6.0 so I need to play nicely with them.

Thanks for the info.

Nop... yoy can't create ActiveX in .NET but Assemblies instead. If you want
to use an Assembly from VB 6.0 then you use something called CCW (COM
Callable Wrapper) but you're calling indirectly an Assembly.
