I know so little about VB and need help developing an ActiveX control. Where can I go to get help with code? I need to develop an ActiveX control that will allow a user to enter a name and password so that they can log on to a database and access information. The ActiveX control needs to verify the user name and password. If the user does not have a password because it's their first time to access the db, the control must ask the user to enter a password, store it and then let the user into the db. If the user is already in the system, the control needs to verify the password and then give the user access to the system. Can anyone point me in the right direction for getting help with code? I am desperate. B-( Thanks ahead of time.
 
If your new to ActiveX, what you could do is learn how I did. go to and find an ActiveX control similar to what you want. i.e. one that has all the controls you would want on your activeX. You could download the control and the code and from there you can learn the types of calls they used to make it.

Without doing it that way it would have been hard for me to understand Get and Put.

If your interested, I have a small ActiveX that is a label which acts like a web form to send email when clicked. It shows how you can make your own Properties, i.e. caption, and how you can use it to fire events etc. I can email it to you if you want. Craig, mailto:sander@cogeco.ca
