Generating code from OCX control

Hi
I have OCX control which was developed for VB6. The distributing company seems out of business. Control works ok in vb.net but required some changes. Is there a tool to do reverse engineering and generate code for OCX

Thanks in advanc

No -- that's not even legal, I think.

What control is it and what changes do you need to make? Perhaps someone
else is using that control and can point you in the right direction.
