Create a new Project using Visual Basic, and on the Project Menu, choose Add File, or just press ctrl + D. Add the Active X control that you wish to your current project.

Make sure the actual view window for the control is closed, then add the component to the a form, using the controls toolbar. Make sure the Startup Object is set to Form1, or whatever the form is called, then run the project as usual.
