|
·

|
The control will enable the user to view and manipulate column
values stored in the application database. |

create an ActiveX Control Column rather than inserting an ActiveX
Control.

in a USoft application:
| 1.
|
In the Windows Designer, open the window class in which you
want to use the control. |

|
If necessary, select the control or control group within which
you want to use the ActiveX control. |
