I am fairly new to VB.NET and havn't used VB for anything bar applications since Ver 4.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to make a control that would be accessible in other applications - in fact I am trying to create a control that I could embed in another program (and pass variables to it). The control will be used in Non- VB programs and will also be used in an alternative development environment.

An ActiveX control would be ideal, but I don't know how to proceed.
 
You can't realisticly create ActiveX controls in VB.NET. You have two choices, either an ActiveX control or a Windows Forms Control. If your control is only going to be used on .NET platforms, go with the latter. Otherwise, drop back to developing with Visual Basic 6 and make an ActiveX control.
