It should be noted that exporting Active X controls from .NET is NOT
supported, and probably not a good idea.

If the requirement is to develop an Active X control, then you should do
it in an unmanged environment, like C++, or VB, or at least, use those
technologies as the entry point (to implement all the interfaces required
for ActiveX controls) and interop with .NET.

Hope this helps.

I'd have to re-iterate (from some personal experience) that Nicholas is
right on this one.

I had to abort any dotNet "activeX controls" ( or "embedded controls") and
switch back to old school vb6 for this little activex I needed.

Going back to non OO was ... youch, hard.

But as he pointed out c++ is an option.

I didn't try the piggy back on VB6 to some .net code (interop) so maybe you
could experiment with that one.
