Embedding a VB 6 standard EXE application in a .NET forns applicat

I am having an existing VB 6 standard .EXE application. Now I am developing a
wrapper application in .Net and I want to launch and execute the VB 6 exe app
in the .Net App window. That is VB 6 App window inside (embedded) in .Net app
window. How do I go about doing this stuff?

Thats correct.

Exactly I tried doing the same. I converted the standard exe to ActiveX exe
object in VB 6. I created a client VB 6 application (standard exe) for
testing purposes and added a form to it. Added a OLE control to the form and
tried to bind the ActiveX exe object to it. When I invoked the application,
the application is instantiated in a separate window, instead of emdedding in
the control. I need to get the app embedded inside the client application
window. Hope this clears the point.

What you mean by embedding?

If you want to reuse it as component, you'd need to make it an
ActiveX/COM component and then use it.
