VB6 user defined controls (inheritence?)

I am writing two graphic controls using classic VB (i.e. VB6). One control displays only static data whereas the other displays dynamic data - otherwise the functionality is the same.
95% of the time the functionality overlaps (i.e. is the same) - e.g. plot a line, resize etc,. and I want to avoid writing the same code twice, in cases where the functionality overlaps. Since VB does not support inheritence (at least not directly), is there anyway I can minimise the amount of code I can write twice ? I was thinking of using the first control as a BaseControl and using that control in a new control (DynamicControl) - where all I was doing was proviing new methods to deal with Dynamic data - but I'm not convinced this is the best approach. Any ideas?
