The .NET "ActiveX" control

74 New Member
I have a unique ASP.NET authentication system that I'm developing wherein my ASP.NET application has to access a certain file on the user's computer...sort of.

I've been researching ActiveX controls and have developed a VB6 ActiveX that is able to do the job.
But... I'm having issues with the lack of security on this object and would like to develop this in VB.NET instead.

I've followed a bunch of examples on how to do this ...they seemed easy enough, however the .NET version of the "ActiveX" control simply will not do anything in the browser.

I've tested the .NET control on it's own, and it works properly...but when it's loaded through the web browser, the control will be visible but won't do the necessary work to access the file.

I'm sure this has to do with some sort of Security Trust issue between my .NET
"ActiveX" control and the client's Windows Operating system....

Does anyone know how to develop and utilize a .NET version of "ActiveX"?
Could anyone point me in the right direction so that I can learn how?
Does anyone know how to establish a Trust between a .NET "ActiveX" control and the Windows OS???

Thanks,

Hello all, in VB6 we were able to create ActiveX-DLL's (In Process Components) and ActiveX-Exe's (Out of Process Components). We habe build up an application that exists of an main module (Standard Exe) that calls and controls other modules (ActiveX-Exe). We decided for ActiveX-Exe because they run in different processes. That means if one module shuts down, the others are still alive. Second reasons

I need an ActiveX control, or any other solution which permits me to show only a part of a huge bitmap (about 4000 X 3500 pixels) for each record in an Access database. The part of the image should appear at 1:1 scale. I MUST be able to displace the position of this window above the huge image, or, more easily, (and practically), displace the image under the fixed window. Ideally, it should be done by X,Y origin point coords stored in a...

Hi all, I am still getting into ASP/VB.net and have a concern about something I see coming. Currently our entire website is classic ASP, yet the feelings from on high is that we need to start looking into updating the site to ASP.net. For the most part I am in favor of this, but I am concerned about the ActiveX objects we are using. For example: I needed to provide the means for a user to upload multiple files via a webpage. To...

A friend of mine is having this problem on his machine - it works fine on my machine. The above message appears when he tries to inset the "Microsoft Internet Transfer Control" (Inet) into a Windows form. It was enabled in the "Add item to Toolbox..." in Visual Studio.Net 2003 (tried both VB and C#). We tried Regsvr32 msinet.ocx on his machine. Still does not work, although it registers it. I don't remember if I did that on my...

I have an application containing WMP and I'd like to create an "online" version of it. I believe that this used to be accomplished with activex in VB 6. How would I go about recreating it for use in websites like youtube, or other flash players? Do I have to go back to VB 6?

I have 3 Access versions (2000, 2002, 2003) on an XP machine. I'm using Access 2000 for some development which will include use of the Microsoft Internet Browser control. However, when attempting to select that control from the "More Controls" list, I don't see "Microsoft Internet Browser". Does anyone know the actual filename of this control, and how I might have lost it, and how I might reinstall it? Thanks prm928

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
