how to register an active x control in framework as server side control.

i m making a simple Webusercontrol in C# in which i added some server side webforms control. in my form i want to Add a DT Picker control which is as an OCX ( MSCOMCTL32.OCX ) i.e. Windows Common control so i select it in Add Component and add it in Web Froms , it comes on web user control as an object which has all its attributes in HTML code . So far its good ...

but as i added this OCX from my my machine and its not a server side control , i am not able to access it in C# which only give access to server side control which r registered on server and have refference in assemblies . so i m not able to access any property of my active x i.e. DT Picker control . I want to know how i can register this OCX on framework at server side so that it can go to client as other serve side controls and i can access it in my C# code.

hope u will get wat i want to do .. if not clear please ask ..

if some one got ne clue pls tell me ..

you cant stick a windows form control into a web form control if that is what you are trying to do.

also if you are refering to registering an non .NET active x on a remote server, then you probably wont be able to do that as permission to do that is not usually accepted by the Web host.

well i m not trying to put windows control on webform .. i just want to use DTPicker control in my WebUser control which is in MSComctl2.Ocx . i succed in one bit ahead yesterday that i add MSComctl2.ocx in reference and i was able to declare DTPicker class object using MSComctl2 like this ...

using MSComCtl2 ;

protected MSComCtl2.DtPicker txtDateofBirth;

now i can access all property of DtPicker in my C# sharp code but On my web user control still i dont know how to fetch this control from server which i add in reffernce . Normally there is synch. btw ASP server controls and its definations in C# but i hv added my control defination in C# but not able to draw it on Webuser control . Basic problem is how to make an active-x control as server side control so that i can be fethc from server as other Server side controls like System.WebControl.UI.Textbox some thing .... I tried one more thing by adding my control through program .. i wrote ..

Panel1.Controls.Add(txtDateofBirth);

but it says ... can not convert MSComCtl2.DPicker to a System.WebControl.UI.controls .. means it will only add already define controls in tht class.

so over all i m not able to user DtPicker control in a web user contol.
