    Re: How can I create an ActiveX control that can be placed onto an MDI form?

    The control I trying to develop is designed to be a container of other forms. I know a control "A&G Subform" which can do this. So it is possible to do it.

    thx for ur response

    Not all controls are made in VB6. Some are made in C++ using the ATL Library and MFC.
    Nobody knows what software they want until after you've delivered what they originally asked for.

    Don't solve problems which don't exist.

    A user control can be added to an MDI Form only if the Alignable property is set to True.

    If you then want to allow developers the ability to add controls onto the user control, the ControlContainer property must also be set to True.
