Re: activex as ui for com

I suppose you actually need an ActiveX Control (it's hard to tell
from your somewhat garbled post...). A rule of thumb to remember
is that messages should not be used together with COM method
calls, e.g. your protoicol should not mix COM with messages.
Using Windows messages as part of the implementation of a
COM object is perfectly fine, however, since it does not affect
its clients.
