Sounds like you should check out http://www.activex.com - CNet's download site for various ActiveX controls (admittedly, they've only got a few thousand in their catalog, but hey, it's better than nothing!) Other places to check include Hallogram, http://www.componentsource.com and ZDNet's devhead sites; if you're looking for commerical offerings more extensive than Hallogram's, www.componentsource.com does pretty extensive compatibility checking for what they do sell, and have given me good service. They also distribute CDs with demo versions of several hundred different controls that you can activate live after testing them - you'll need a credit card to make use of this feature. And the added advantage to well-behaved ActiveX components is that they move to non-VFP front ends, too...
