I am building an ActiveX control using VC++. However when I tried to insert another ActiveX control (eg. FlexGrid) in 1 of my dialog box, my program crush when I tried to show the dialog box at runtime (hWnd = NULL). After I delete the active control from my dialog box, everything runs fine.

Crashing problem with ActiveX Dialog
- Thread starter gavinchan

it looks like an activex control creation problem 
trace your dialog creation process -- exactly to the point where your client activex control and investigate the reason for the creation's failure. i would go for a stupid reason like not initializing ole before trying to create or something like that. could be a control specific problem though, that could be beyond you. Example: i had a control failing to create because it looked for some file and did not find it !?!? it was created successfully when i added the file in the PATH variable.
