active x control on click

[Tesita]

Is it possible to have an active x control "loaded" on the click of a button in an asp page? I don't want the control to be part of the page. What should happen is when the user clicks on a submit button, the control loads with some data that is passed from the page and the user can either print that data from the active x control or close it without printing>

Can this be done anyone?

the easiest way would just be to have an intermediate page
that takes in teh data..when they submit, they goto another page that dynamically includes the data from the previous to configure the activex control

you may be able to dynamically include the activex control
in teh same page but I think they are loaded up at the beginning and that could be a headache

the other option would be to incldue the activex control..but just
set its visibility to hidden or to set its left or top position to be offscreen and then move it into position when you need it
