Hello,
I have this non-Microsoft third party application.  With this application, 
there is an OCX to use in Visual Basic.  When you place this control on a 
form, it appears as an icon.  When you start automating this control, the 
application opens just like you had started the application by running the 
EXE.

I want the user to be able to see what is going on in the Application 
while my VB App is automating it.  I thought maybe I can create some type 
of 'Window' - no pun intended - embedded in my form.

I have two different ways to accomplish this with out copmplete success:

1.     I tried the OLE Control, with it showing Content instead of
       the Icon, but the only thing that will come up the container
       is the icon.  I can still automate it and manipulate it, but
       the application screen does not show up at all.

2.     I tried using the SetParent API to bind the application to a
       frame on my VB App.  Everything works well, except the automated
       application shows up shifted and cut off at the right and bottom.
       I even tried using the SetWindowPos API to move it, but it didn't 
       work.  Does using the SetParent API, give the Automated App a NEW
       Windows Handle?

I would prefer to continue to perfect the second option if possible.

Has anyone done similar work, or can anyone help me on this one?

Thank you in advance,
Matt Brook
