    When / How to use ActiveX controls ?

    Hi ,

    I'm new to this .. so could anyone point me out to VB documentation / sites that can give me information on when to use ActiveX controls instead of standard Exes/DLLs and how to use them.

    Thanks

    Both ActiveX Control and DLL allow you to reuse your code. If you need an interface (UI) then use ActiveX. Otherwise, you can use DLL.

    That's not correctly said; the DLL's you guys are talking about are ActiveX compliant aswell !
