The best way would be to use Microsoft InterDev. It ships as part of Visual Studio. When you open up a porject, you can browse to list all registered activeX controls on your system. Then all you have to do is to add that control to your page and add whatever scripting you need to make it work and your set.
If you don't have InterDev, then you can use VB itself to generate a simple .html file for you. First, you have to make sure that you build the control as an ActiveX control project. When you do, under the file menu you will have an option to make a .ocx file. Do this first. Then use VB's package and deployment wizard to create an internet package. Just follow the wizard and before ya know it, you will have all the neccesary files to deploy your control on the web.
good luck. I know ActiveX can be a challenging area.

I still can not get it to run. I did th ocx file and then I did the package. It made all the correct files. Shows project.htm and cab files. I tried to insert the project.htm file into dreamweaver3 and it show up like a blank picture.
I also tried uploading to my server and got the same results. What am I doing wrong?
Do I also need to deploy it???
