How do i integrate a VB program onto my webpage. For example, say i make a VB "calculator," how would i put that on my webpage for people to use.
 
hi there
you can implement you vb application in webpage for that
you can do two things
1.Use activex controls for controling thing to web pages
and the other is using vb scrpit thought asp works fine
/revanth
 
OK, i want to use ASP. Do you know a good website or source i can go to so that i can find the code to make listboxes and combo boxes etc? (all the objects that VB offers textbox, commandbutton, etc etc etc...)

thanks in advance to anyone
 
Hi SSJpn,

A much better method is to use a Calculator COM Object (dll) on the server. I work for a financial company and we use such Components for Calculating AERs etc.
You would then use the COM functionality in ASP by the Server.CreateObject method and its faster than VB Script.

Stay away from ActiveX methods because its a hassle distributing it and getting it through company firewalls.
