Embed a .net customControl in XFT

[fooManChoo]

Has anyone been able to use a C# Component in a VB form? I've created
a .net class (dll) and am able to implement that from a VB script using
the interop. The control does work stand alone.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

fooManChoo,

Officially, there is no support to host a control from .NET in an Active
X host, except for Internet Explorer. However, there is a workaround, and
it is VERY unsupported. There is an article titled "Hosting Windows Forms
Controls in COM Control Containers", located at (watch for line wrap):

Hope this helps.
