ActiveX Document running problem

Hi everybody,
If you know the answer, please let me know.

I am creating ActiveX Document following MSDN - chp "Creating an ActiveX Document"
When I try to run it, my created "FirstDoc.dob" file opens (via Explorer) in VB with the message "User Documents are not allowed in Standard EXE and UserControl project types. Item(s) not loaded." I don't have my activeX document on the screen (and of course cannot do anything).
I followed exactly MSDN. What did I do wrong?

Well, let me be hard on you:
You used ActiveX Documents!!!

This is an obsolete technology, and nobody uses it, it never broke through.

I had this problem 3 years ago, and droped AXD's. All web development is better off in ASP (if you program in the microsoft environment)

Sorry if this is bad news
