Help required with simple ActiveX control

[Loial]

I have been tearing my hair out trying to create a very simple VB6 active X control that will display forms correctly. I want user_control initialise to display a form. That form contains a a command button that displays a second form with a text box on it. Whilst everything works in my VB Project, when I try and run it standalone, using the html generated by the package and deployment wizard, I get problems with the forms. For example :

1. Nothing displays unless I have another IE Explorer window running.
2. When a form is displayed the form is hidden or displayed in anothet IE window
3. The form is disabled so I cannot click on any command button, text box etc.

Does anyone have a simple VB ActiveX control that displayes forms AND that works correctly?

IE version is 6.

Move your code to UserControl_Show

[Loial]

Thanks, I have tried that but now when I run it in IE(using the HTML created by the deplayment wizard), I cannot click on the command button. Works fine in the VB IDE

Here is the code

Private Sub UserControl_Show()
Load Form1
SetParent Form1.hWnd, UserControl.hWnd
Form1.Show vbModal
End Sub

' Form 1 contains a command button


Private Sub Command1_Click()
Load Form2
SetParent Form2.hWnd, Form1.hWnd
Form2.Show vbModal

End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()

End Sub

' Form 2 just contains a text box
