Open Outlook on user machine

[John Daragon]

You cannot create ActiveX controls using .NET. An ActiveX control is a
compiled COM application that downloads to the user's client browser and
attempts to execute there. There is no such equivelent in .NET.

Oh yes there is. I've written them.

Oh yes there is. I've written them.

No, you haven't. You can write .NET components that expose themselves to
COM via InterOp. But, the .NET Framework does not emit native ActiveX
components (which are COM objects).

Oh, for heaven's sake... The difference (in this context) is ?

 

[Scott M.]

The difference is that you are telling the OP that you can do something that
you can't.

If you don't even know what technology you are using, how can you be of
help? Your advice is just going to confuse matters for someone who
obviously is new to .NET development.
