What can replace the ActiveX in .NET

Currently I have in-house software package written around ActiveX(supporting
VB and C++). We are moving to .NET and I wonder what (component technology)
in the .NET can replace(?) the ActiveX?
I am a novice in .NET.

You can use COM/ActiveX in .NET just as easily as you would in VB or VBA. In
your .NET project, just click on "Add Reference..." and you'll notice that
VS.NET shows you all the registed COM components along with all the .NET
assemblies. When you add a COM component to your project, VS.NET
automatically creates an "Interop" assembly that essentially wraps around
your ActiveX dll/ocx, and you access the activeX objects seamlessly through
this interop assembly.
