Hi,

I've really only just started learning VC++, But I'd thought I'd have a play with the ActiveX creation wizard - I'm trying to create a edit box with slightly extended functionalilty - I created an ActiveX using the wizard and when it asked me which class I wished to base it on I answer CEdit (Since I wanted the functionality of an edit box, I guessed this would be sensible) when I compiles and checked this control out (obviously at this point I've added no extra code) I expected the ActiveX to look
like a edit box, but it didn't, it allowed me to enter in text, but had no nice 3D bevelled edge and the text was in an unusual font. I assume there is something I have to do to create this effect - can nay one throw any
light on this - or does anyone know of an example of an activeX with a edit box on that I can have a look at the code for?

Any help would be appreciated.

Pete
