How can I develop OLE Controls?
ActiveX Control FAQ - GeneralCurrently, the best tool to develop OLE Controls is Visual C++ and the MFC libraries. I would imagine that other development environments (e.g., Borland's C++ compiler) will soon allow development of OLE controls. All of my experience is with VC++ and the MFC libraries and so the questions and answers are based on these tools. Recently, as part of the ActiveX SDK, Microsoft has made available an OLE Control framework that should work with any Windows-based C++ compiler.
How do I write OLE controls?
MFC Visual C++ FAQ version 4.0 Windows Programming OLE VBX O...In VC++ 2.x, Microsoft released the CDK (OLE control developer kit), you use that kit and it's tools to write OLE controls. In VC++ 4.0, this is no longer separate and you now just run the Control Wizard. Check your VC++ documentation for more info.
How are OLE Controls (OCXs) different from VBXs?
ActiveX Control FAQ - GeneralVBXs and OLE controls are more similar than different from a functionality standpoint. The original goal of the OLE Control standard was to replace the VBX standard. VBXs are very much tied to both the 16-bit and Intel (x86) architecture. To work with Win32 on various platforms (e.g.,Mac,Alpha, etc.) the architecture had to be redesigned. Around the time the guys at Microsoft started working on VB 4.0 various OLE technologies were also being developed.
Why do not OLE controls resize along the scaled element window?
FAQ: Collection authoring with SuperMemoOLE servers may affect element window scrollbars. As scrollbars are the coordinate reference for scaled forms, OLE container never scales. This change will make it possible to use most compliant OLE servers with the Scaled attribute on
I'm a straight C-SDK programmer. How can I develop controls without MFC?
ActiveX Control FAQ - GeneralI am a straight 'C' SDK programmer. Just a few facts i would like to have information about... Where can i find information about creating OCX's in c (i have done it using MFC but I prefer to know exactly whats going on all the time...it seems like MFC hides to much from the programmer.) Secondly how do i load a custom control (OCX) into a window (not specifcally a dialog box but any window,client area,etc) any help or sources of information would be much appreciated.

What are placebos and controls?
Clinical Trials - Frequently Asked Questions - sleepdisorder...Not all participants in a clinical trial will receive the same treatment. In order to evaluate how the treatment being studied compares to existing treatments, investigators usually gather data from participants receiving the target treatment and from participants receiving other care. The allocation of treatments is determined by a randomization process that ensures statistical validity. Participants receiving other types of care are in "control" groups.
Are there parental controls?

Why is OLE so slow?
ThumbsPlus FAQAsk Microsoft, or the manufacturer of the specific application you're dealing with. In-process servers are generally much faster than executable-driven OLE servers, but are rare. For example, CorelDRAW starts up (and loads the entire program into memory) to serve an object. And, a new instance is started if Corel is already running, rather than simply calling the existing program to do the work.
What are the controls?
Frequently Asked QuestionsThe cursor keys Up, Down, Left and Right (or 2, 4, 6, 8 on the numeric keypad if Num-lock is off) to move Digger. Apologies to users of non-QWERTY keyboards - I know this is a terrible choice for you - you'll just have to redefine the keys. Double apologies for users of WinDig - we haven't implemented keyboard redefinition in that version yet.)
What is an OLE control?
MFC Visual C++ FAQ version 4.0 Windows Programming OLE VBX O...OLE controls are the 32-bit successor to 16-bit VBX controls. Instead of being stored in a plain DLL and having functional interfaces, OLE controls rely on OLE automation. Hopefully this will make the interface more flexible and easier to use than VBXs. Although OLE controls use OLE, they are not object oriented. There is a flat set of properties you have access to and you can not apply OO techniques such as inheritance, polymorphism, etc.. to them.
TRichEditOle works until I for a while and then the OLE features stop working. What gives?
Yet Another Code Site - FAQsThe VCL is free to destroy and create controls whenever it needs to. Certain events, like changing the Scrollbars property for a TRichEdit control, cause this to happen. When this does happen, the connection between the TRichEdit control and TRichEditOleCallback class is lost the "new" Rich Edit no longer calls the TRichEditOleCallback functions that provide the OLE support. See the paper titled Window handles vs.
What controls the natural menstrual cycle?
NoPeriod.com - FAQOnly women capable of a menstrual cycle can get pregnant naturally. The body makes chemicals and proteins called neurotransmitters and hormones which create the menstrual cycle. The neurotransmitters from the brain tell the pituitary, an organ found in the brain, to make and release protein signals that go to the ovary where an egg is developed. Estrogen is made by the ovary to help the egg develop and after the egg is released (ovulation) progesterone is made by the ovary.

Q. What controls their numbers?
DPIW - Tasmanian Devil - FAQsThe greatest current threat to numbers across Tasmania is the Devil Facial Tumour Disease (DFTD). It’s a fatal condition that is restricted to devils, characterised by cancers around the mouth and head. In 1996, Tasmanian devils were photographed in north-east Tasmania with what were apparently large tumours on their faces. Since then, (as at December 2006), there has been a 90 per cent decline of average spotlighting sightings in that region, and a drop of 41 per cent across the State.
What are engineering controls?
Most frequently asked questions concerning the bloodborne pa...The term, "Engineering Controls," refers to controls (e.g., sharps disposal containers, needleless systems, self-sheathing needles) that isolate or remove the bloodborne pathogens hazards from the workplace. Some examples of such devices or alternatives include stop cocks (on-off switch), needleless systems, needle-protected systems, and "selfsheathing" needles.
