Re: Wrapped OCX Control]

#1

To instantiate an activex control you need a container. AXHost is one for
windows forms.
You first need to use Type.GetTypeFromProgID and Type.GUID to convert the
string name to guid, then call AXHost's constructor with the guid. Finally,
use AXHost's CreateControl method to create the activex after adding the
AXHost objecy to your form's controls collection.

Hi;

How can I get dynamically (similar to reflection) have access to members
of an object activex
instantiated also so dynamic?

The code of how the ActiveX object is instantiated in this attached file.
ZIP

Tks
Alvaro.

Thank you, but now that's what I am doing (please review the attached zip file in the first post).
What I need is to be able to access members of ocx dynamically.

Help me, please...

You can discover the methods and properties though IDispatchGetIdsOfNames or
IDispatch::GetTypeInfo
