Hi Pete,

Saw the other post and replied to it before I saw this one. However, just to expand a bit. The ActiveX control gives you about as you could get from the DLL, with the exception of being able to specify a template for the dialog. As with other ActiveX controls, they seem to work better with VFP 6.0, and you can run into versioning problems. This last item is a good reason to sub-class the control in a prg. It is, in general, stable, and my experience is that it works fairly well in VFP.
