I am migrating vb4 application to vb6.0 app. I am using windows xp. I want to add ocx controls to the application. Any simple steps to do add ocx controls/files to the application. What are .frm files
Object = "{bla-lablabla-lablabla}#2.0#0"; "THREED20.OCX"
Object = "{blabla-bla-bla-blabla-blablabla}#2.0#0"; "vsview2.ocx"
I want to add these two ocx controls in vb6 ( 16 bit to 32 bit)
You don't state if you already have the OCX files.
To address your first question on how to add OCX controls to your VB6 project. You need to go to Projects -->Components( CtrlT ) then click the Browse button and navigate to where the OCX is located and select it.
As far as the actual OCX Files are concerned there is a Threed20.ocx that is included on the VB6 install media, I believe it is on Disk 2. There is also a registry file that you will need to run to enable design time use of the control. As far as the vsview2.ocx file is concerned if it is not a 32 bit OCX you will need to contact the vendor, who I believe is ComponentSource to get the proper version if you don't currently have it.
And as far is what is a .frm file it is according to this article
A form holds the description of all objects and their properties for each form, as well as the basic code that you have written to respond to the events.
