can I turn a few DLLs into an ocx?
hello,
I need to use a number of DLLs in my programs.
I wanted to know if there is a way to turn them in to one easy to use ocx.
is this even possible? if so, how can I do that?
thanks

Yea easy.
How you do it though would depend on what you want to do, and how you want to use the code.
I would prefer one easy to use DLL than an OCX.

1) errrr...add them all into your project???
2) errrr...just add code to the DLL's and recompile

Make sure you choose activex project when you create you new project to put them in.
Karl Moore had a good tutorial on this but I dont know where it is since vbworld was taken over.
Whats Karl doing these days?

Remember, an .OCX houses visual ActiveX objects. If all your .DLLs are non-visual in nature, they should be placed in a common ActiveX .DLL, not an .OCX.
Nobody knows what software they want until after you've delivered what they originally asked for.

Re: can I turn a few DLLs into an ocx?
so all I need to do is put the DLLs in a activex dll, add my code, and I'm done?
I don't need to register the DLLs?
thanks

Only ActiveX DLLs need to be registered.
