Active X EXE

[RobertoDeFeo]

Hi

I am trying to spilt a very large EXE up so that i can reuse the components in different programs. I was looking at using ActiveX EXE to store forms, modules, and classes etc. The problem lies in that the main exe has a MDI form with lots of child form and i want to put some of these child forms in to the Active X EXE but I have not succesfull loaded any of the with in the Main EXE this way because it wants a parent form first of all. Does anyone know a way around this problem or other solutions .

Cheers

Well, you can use the SetParent API to set a window's parent - in this case it would be the MDI form... BUT it's extremely dodgy when using MDI. More often than not, it will kill your app.
I can't think of any other way.. sorry.

Thanks for the suggestion I have had a look at doing what you said but can't seem to get it to work yet. Have you ever had this working at all.

Thanks again

Using Midi in an ActiveX Exe is not wise.. you will only end up with more headaches...
