need add .net activex control project ,Compiled DLL controlFor twinbasic, the principle of implementation is.

private withevents extctl as vbcontrolextender

private sub form_load()
licenses.add "prjweeks.weeksctl", "xydsfasfjewfe"
set extctl = form1.controls.add("prjweeks.weeksctl", "ctl1")

[fafalone]

tB supports the standard .NET COM Interop VB6 does. It doesn't need to be made into VB.NET 20.0 or whatever version they're on.
