    Put ActiveX into VC++?

    Goodday everybody...

    I wish to know how do I call an ActiveX Exe created in VB, using a program written in VC++?

    Thanks in advanced.

    you'll need the CLSID of the object you want to create from the exe, the IID of the interface you want, and use CoCreateInstance:

    CoCreateInstance(CLSID of object, NULL, CLSCTX_LOCAL_SERVER, IID of interface, variable that receives pointer to interface(a VOID**))

    Do I need to import the EXE first? Or what should I do to link the EXE to my program?
