| Sorc_Polgara | Question, can you use ActiveXs and DLLs that are for VB in a C++ program also? For example .ocx files. If so, how would you do it? | May 21, 2004, 1:03 AM |
| Mephisto | I don't think you can use an .ocx for other languages other than VB because of the nature of how they are created. As far as I know, a .dll can be used with any language if you properly use it. | May 21, 2004, 1:12 AM |

| Maddox | Yes, they should be able to be used in any application supporting COM. | May 21, 2004, 2:54 AM |

I always assumed .ocx files were specific .dll-like files designed and engineered for the Visual Basic development environment. | May 21, 2004, 3:50 AM |
