No, sorry.

ActiveX is 32 bits code and can only be used from FWH and Harbour/xHarbour

Kindly check if this third party product can be use from FW24. If okay please show samples.

Thank you,

Jose

Jose,

It seems as they provide a 32 bits DLL: printwiz.dll

You can access some 32 bits DLLs from FW 16 bits, but never an ActiveX. Windows does not allow it.

Antonio,

Just curious. Can we build a dll in XHB that can be accessible from fw24/clipper (16bit) then the XHB dll access an activeX dll.

I am just thinking a way to access activeX from 16bit application.

Thanks for your comments.

Regards,

Jose

Jose,

We did a similar test to use richedit from 16 bits and it did not work
