9. Creating a User Defined ActiveX Control

5.  Microsoft ActiveX Control Test Container: 

A new utility called the ActiveX Control  Test Container has been included in VB-6.   This tool allows you to load an ActiveX control that you have created in order to test.   From the start up menu select Microsoft Visual studio->Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 Tools->ActiveX Control Test Container as shown in the figure 12.   You will be presented with a blank ActiveX Test Container window as shown in the figure 13.   Select Edit->Insert New Control.   You will get a list of ActiveX Controls as shown in the figure 14.   Select rproj.rform.   The ActiveX control becomes active and you can select a gif file for display as shown in the figure 15.    You can insert the Calendar Control and you will find that the calendar becomes dynamic.
