Hi Everyone...

My aim is to create an ActiveX Control (MyControl) in VB with one of its constituent members being a pre-existing ActiveX Control (OtherControl), which I import from the Components dialog. If I build an ocx out of MyControl, does the target machine need to have the OtherControl installed and registered in addition to MyControl to work? Peace

It may depend on the actual control you embed, but I have some custom controls that I made utilizing two other controls from separate third party suppliers. I have to install and register both of the other controls in order to use my new custom control.
 
In that case, I think I'll just have to register both components - it's the safest way I guess.

Thank You very much for your help! Peace
