I have never met anyone who has actually used ActiveX documents in a live
application. Probably your best bet would be to get ahold of a copy of
Dan Appleman's "Developing COM/ActiveX Components in Visual Basic 6". He
has a section on this.

running

file,

a

c> omponents on the web-server itself? And, if so, how is this
accomplished?
2> - Does the directory (on the web-server) need to be configured in any
p> articular way?
3> - What is the purpose of the html file that is automatically created?
C> an I just create a link directly to the .vbd file itself?
