Status: Verified
SYMPTOM(s):
ActiveX does not behave the same in Progress and in Visual Basic
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 9.1x
OpenEdge 10.x
Windows
CAUSE:
The ActiveX support in Progress is built using the MFC container.
This container support is built into the Microsoft Foundation Classes. Microsoft also uses this in the Visual C++ container support, bot *NOT* in their Visual Basic containment support (it is completely different). VB has a number of idiosyncrasies that controls often rely on. If a control does rely on any of these idiosyncrasies (which show up most often as events which do not get triggered), the problem is an architectural problem in MFC and not something that we can fix in Progress.
FIX:
No fix if ActiveX control falls into the category given in the Cause statement.
