How to set ActiveX property?

[Max HK]

I want to use an ActiveX.

In VB6, I use these ways to set properties:
1. oGrid1.Cols = 27
2. oGrid1.Font.Name = "Arial"
3. oGrid1.Column(2).Width = 20
4. oGrid1.Cell(0,1).Text = "Item Code"

In FWH, I know oGrid1:SetProp( "Cols", 27) to set property, but do not know how to assign others (2 to 4).

Thanks.

Max,

From FWH 9.05 on you can use:

1. oGrid1:Cols = 27
2. oGrid1:Font:Name = "Arial"
3. oGrid1:Column(2):Width = 20
4. oGrid1:Cell(0,1):Text = "Item Code"

Antonio,

Thanks for your reply.

But I am using FWH9.01, how to do these settings?

In addition, I know there are different ways to use ActiveX:
1. TActiveX():New( oWnd, cProgID, nTop, nLeft, nBottom, nRight )
2. CreateObject( cProgID )
3. TOLEAuto():New( cProgID )

What are differences between these ways? If use CreateObject() or TOLEAuto(), how to set coordinates?

I have tried TActiveX() to create Excel and Word but Application Exception occurs. And not every 3rd parties VB ActiveX can be created by TActiveX.

Max,

Please try it again using these enhancements that we did on Class TActiveX:

Thanks.

But the module FiveHC.lib in www.mediafire.com did not exist. Please upload it again.

Max,

You just need to compile the published activex.prg in that post and link the resulting OBJ to your application

Antonio,

Yes, I have re-linked the new ActiveX.obj, but the error "Unresolved external '_HB_FUN_ACTXEND'" occurs.

Max,

Use a dummy function for a test:

Code: Select all

function ACTXEND()

return nil
