[Yama]

Hi,

What has replaced ActiveX control running as embedded objects in IE?

Thanks,

Yama

To be honest, nothing.
The only thing you can be sure of is that ActiveX is going away, not to be
replaced by anything really.
There is the option of "sourcing" .Net controls in IE, but that's not going
to be a viable option, seeing as there's no documentation on it (for v2),
it's been breaking current v1.1 installations, and the fact that it's never
really worked.,

it works well!
it's just slooooow to load.
it's also not very much documented as you said.
there are nice demo on the web, nonetheless!
try the smart client cdemos:

I guess Avalon is going to be the right replacement.....

I found this: http://blogs.msdn.com/infopath/archive/2005/04/15/408728.aspx
nevertheless this will .NET framework installed on client machine and will
work only on upperlevel IE browsers.

This all sucks biggy timos! No choice I will have to use unmanaged MFC/ATL
to write my ActiveX controls then package them into a CAB file for easier
installation.

Thanks ALL,

Yama
