Use Classes instead of activeX Controls. Contains useful Combobox Lookup Example(3 Variations)

Use Classes instead of activeX Controls. Contains useful Custom Combobox Lookup Example to encapsulate GUI function. Advantages: Easy Code Maintainence. Easier to Create than active X Control No need to implement passthroughs for properties/methods/events(VB Does it AUTOMATICALLY - in a fashion) Instantly have events/properties code added to the class by VB Class can be public in activeX DLL and still perform all event related processing of a control on a form!!! Unlike ActiveX Controls - no extra resize event code needed to handle resizing Can ENCAPSULATE ALL Control Code within the class (including code for licenced controls) thus bypassing some of the licencing issues when distributing activeX controls holding other licenced controls eg for use on web pages Allows encapsulation of all Business Logic and GUI-control within easily maintainable classes (NEAT!) THERE IS NO CODE IN THE TEST FORM THAT PERFORMS ANY OF THE ACTUAL METHODS/PROPERTIES/EVENTS USED IN THE LOOKUP/DROPDOWN FUNCTIONS. Dont Flame me for using the word objects in the context of VB.
