VB on the Web

[jon_davis24]

Hey all!

I used to know how to make things in Visual Basic that I could embed in a web page (files that were basically EXE's but I could put in a web page, as I said . . . ) I want to do this again, but I can't remember how . . . Can anybody help? I have VB 6.0 with SP 5, and (if it matters) IE 5.5.


Thanks,


JD

Easy - ActiveX controls.

Or (not very popular ActiveX document DLLs or EXEs).

Or turn the exe into a dll and use ASP to access your functions and use html as your inerface.

OK . . .

I have just one problem . . . I have no clue how to use HTML to interface for ASP functions . . . That and I don't know ASP, so that's out of the question (but thank you anyway ).

Now, JoshT, I've tried your idea, but it never works for me (my browser says the control can't be found or something like that). How would I go about correcting that?


Your input is much appreciated!

Use the Package and deployment wizard to generate the correct <object> tags.
