Chapter 3: ActiveX Installation

 

The ProEssentials setup program will automatically install and register all ActiveX interfaces on your development machine.

 

Project / Components... menu Installation...

The setup program prepares Visual Basic for inclusion of ProEssentials components.

 

You can manually register an ActiveX with "REGSVR32.EXE" found in your system/system32 dir. You can also use this utility to manually un-register an ActiveX by using the "-u" command.  This is useful when testing your own setup programs and CAB install features.

 

After installing ProEssentials, launch Visual Basic and create a new "Standard EXE" project.

 

Use the Project / Components... menu item to open the [Components] dialog.

Components... Dialog Adding ProEssentials to a VB project...

 

Within the [Components] Dialog, scroll down until you see the Gigasoft entries and select those shown in the left image. Note that the [Controls] tab is active.

 

Clicking the [OK] button will close the [Components] dialog and places those items selected into Visual Basic's ToolBox as shown.
