Developing ActiveX control in C#

[Laxman Bhat]

Hello,

I want to develop a simple activeX control with property
page support in C#. Any code samples/reference material
will be highly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Laxman

Laxman,

There is no official support for developing ActiveX controls in .NET.
There is an article by Chris Sells titled "Hosting Windows Forms Controls in
COM Control Containers" located at (watch for line wrap):

http://www.ondotnet.com/pub/a/dotnet/2003/01/20/winformshosting.html

However, it says that this is EXTREMELY unsupported, and if it breaks,
that is something you have to handle.

As for property pages, there is no mention of that and you would have to
implement that yourself.

Hope this helps.

You can delevop Controls .NET, but not ActiveX controls.
