DBI could be a solution, however we still use 32bit VFP and even still have some clients with 32bit OS. Best of course would be no ActiveX at all. Perhaps another idea could be HTML with JavaScript using CefSharp for the display.

>>>Yep, x64 can't use 32-bit ActiveX files either. Commercial vendors often will have x64 versions but the widely used MS Common Controls has no x64 version, except I'm told with certain Office subscriptions. FWIW we took the opportunity to get rid of Common controls altoether, so now there's no ActiveX needed by our apps and a simple copy to folder install model. VFPA x64 comes with x64 foxtools.fll but the other dependency to watch out for is all Craig Boyd's flls for encryption compression etc, as well as West Wind wwipstuff.fll. If you look at VFP C+ Compiler, there's examples of incorporating encryption and compression directly in your app, so no need for external flls. Slowly but surely, 32bit dependency is whittled away...
