Hi,
I know I've seen reference to this topic here before but can't seem to find it. We use both VB and VFP as development tools. For VB, we make extensive use of ComponentOne's activeX controls. Some of the controls we use quite a bit have to do with formatting text and numbers, masking text controls, etc.
VB by iteslf is generally weaker than VFP at this type of formatting - however, using these 3rd party ActiveX controls moves VB ahead IMHO. I'd like to be able to use these controls in VFP - but VFP doesn't seem to like them all that much...
I seem to recall that it is possible to create 'wrappers' for these controls using VB so that they are 'useable' in VFP.
I'd appreciate knowing if anyone has had experince doing this sort of thing as whether you'd be willing to send a few samples my way or point me in the right direction. (i.e some pointers as to what is involved in creating these 'wrappers')
