Anyone? Has anyone successfully used P/Invoke to create and use Spread2.5?
If so, how did you create the Spread control/window?

We are using spread30.ocx here in a VB6 project. It can also be used in a
VB.NET project (saying this without experience whether it makes problems),
but I don't understand why you need pInvoke. You can add it to the toolbox
and drop it on the Form. Or did I misunderstand?
 
Why PInvoke?

Unfortunately I need to use the DLL, not the OCX. The DLL is a Win32 DLL,
not an ActiveX DLL.

(Yes, I know how easy it is to use COM Interop -- I'm using a Spread 6 OCX
from a C# program w/o problems. Unfortunately I need to be able to use the
Win32 DLL for a particular client.)
