Okay, so here's something interesting to give you a little more to ponder... I have the control creation in the Init event of the form. However, if I just hack up some code during the runtime, I can successfully create the control with the collection object able to be referenced...

Any thoughts...

>I have an ActiveX control that I built in VB. In my control, I have a couple of instantiated objects: one from a class def. that I built and one from a collection class. When I create a form programmatically in the IDE and add my control through addobject, I can reference the collection object's methods and properties. However, when I compile an application with similar code, the collection object is nowhere to be found. Does anybody know why I can see it in the IDE and not in the runtime?
