Can't drag and drop ActiveX Controls onto Component from designer

ActiveX components are not listed in the Toolbox when I have my own custom Component class open in "Design" mode. I can however do it manually in code.

When a custom Form class is open in "Design" mode the ActiveX components becomes available in the Toolbox.

Why do I see this behaviour?

Thanks for the reply.

I would have been wonderful if it was possible. Doing it manually works fine. I must also add that I saw this from the famous “IssueVision” sample.

Herman
