We currently use Delphi 2005, and import Crystal 10 ActiveX controls as a Type Library to generate crystal reports. From what I've gathered, Crystal 2008 no longer supports ActiveX, so even if we upgrade to Delphi 2009/2010, it still won't be able to generate Crystal 2008 reports, is this correct? That is, there's no way for a Win32 ap...
hi all, I'm facing the following configuration: IE loads c++ activeX (LOADER application that loads c# COM ActiveX (EXECUTOR) that using reflection starts c# UI application (the main application) that uses some legacy c++ COM dlls. I'm trying to avoid registration of these legacy c++ COM (I want to use manifest). But with no success. ...
Hello, I'm developing an activexform with delphi 7 using the indy client (v.9) to connect to pop3 over ssl. Unfortunately when I load the activex in the web browser it tells me that it can't find the SSL library (ssleay32, libeay32). Does anybody know how can I work around this? (or Does anybody know any other method to connect to pop3...
My Windows (C++) program hosts Flash ActiveX. I use XML.sendAndLoad() to communicate to the server inside Flash part of the application. Occasionally XML.sendAndLoad() does not call back. That makes the whole application useless. Only restart helps. I have found using HTTP Analyser, that the requests even do not go to the internet. Ther...
When an ActiveXObject is hosted in a Windows Desktop/Sidebar Gadget, that ActiveXObject is sort of cached and the DLL file for it is locked (meaning it cannot be moved, deleted or renamed). The problem is this; when the gadget is subsequently closed, the DLL is still locked by Windows Sidebar and it cannot be removed. This causes a sig...
So i have the misfortune of embedding this proprietary ActiveX control we created into a web page so that it downloads the code from our server and installs as necessary. Our ActiveX requires a host of other files which need to be installed along with the activex control itself. It should also be noted that the activex and all its de...
I want to load an html file in a browser locally (not through a web server) that runs some javascript that loads and executes an ActiveX control written in C#. The control may or may not contain .NET forms. Can this be done? ...
I have an installer that is registering several dll's and need to know if this was successful. ...
I use an ActiveX control called TAPIEx enabling TAPI phone system integration using MS Access 2000 (+Visual Basic). I want to turn this Access database into a web app with the clients running Firefox (all on internal network). Since Firefox doesnt support ActiveX is it feasible for me to write a Firefox plugin that in turn utilizes the...
Hi Has anyone found and used an alternative to the Microsoft Webbroswer ActiveX control with any success? The open source Firefox ActiveX version seems to be a dead project development wise and based on an old Firefox version. Regards Gary ...
Hello, I build a .NET Class Library project that accesses the mshtml.HTMLDocument when called (from JavaScript). Everything works ok on my machine since I changed the permissions in .NET Configuration for Trusted Sites to have Full access. But for the end users I would like Internet Explorer to prompt them just like, say, Windows Upda...
We are required to use a 3rd party ActiveX control. The only issue is, the layer in our software is a business layer and has no access to a window or form. It also runs on separate threads (and should work from any thread) that are not STA. Rather than breaking our separation of UI from business logic, we used this workaround to make ...
I got a web site using jQuery, jQuery Tools and some handcrafted JS running performing graphical enhancements. While it's running smooth on FF, Safari and Chrome, IE blocks the script execution : There is nothing particularly more dangerous on this code than, let's say, on Netvibes. Why is even talking about activeX ? I'm using JS. ...
I'm fighting with a third-party ActiveX control that we are using to load TIFF images into the client browser from an ASP.Net(3.5) web form. The ActiveX control registers itself correctly (as far as I can tell) as the MIME handler for TIFF images and works correctly every time a file is double-clicked locally. However, IE6 and the Acti...
Using vs2008 .NET 3.5 SP1 I am trying to use an ActiveX dll in my c# console application project and I am getting this runtime exception: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x800702E4): Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {4E58088E-7275-4EAA-8958-A9CCC971DDE9} failed due to the following error: 800702e4....
Hello! I have a HP iPAQ rx5720 with Windows Mobile 5.0. I'm using AxHost code from http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa446515.aspx. This control works great in a ScreenOrientation angle of 0º or 180º (portrait). But it doesn't work if the orientation is 90º or 270º (landscape). By the way, I'm using the control to play videos with...
Ok, I'm pretty sure this is a stupid question so I apologise in advance. I have never done anything with ActiveX, nor have I really got stuck in with what you can do with Flash/Silverlight, but what I am wondering is can either of these technologies be used to talk to external devices that are connected to a machine? I guess what I am...
Hello.. basically, I am needing to execute a program on the viewers computer through a website. This program must be capable of talking to device drivers however, which makes it an unlikely candidate for activex. The website will only be used by clients(as in, it's not a public site) so having to change security settings isn't too big of...
Its been a long saga of deploying my .Net uploader but I'm very close. I created my .Net uploader dll in Visual-Studio, generate an installer for it with InstallShield and digitally sign it (in InstallShield). I then put that CAB file on my server and setup the html page like so: uploader.html: <html> <body> <script src="/include...
I am using LabVIEW to talk to Excel via its ActiveX interface. For some reason after some time successfully writing to a spreadsheet I got this error when attempting to call the a function which does something with the range. Sorry this question is so vague, but its because I am actually using another toolkit to take care of the Excel ...
