By the way, my activex control has 2 radio buttons, a click button, and a container control, which display a control based on the radio button selected. The control hosted in the container control will be having radio buttons, check boxes, spin control etc. And my activex control exposes an interface with 2 methods - show/hide a click button.

Overview

  • Mar 30, 2017 To create the ActiveX control. Open WmpAxControl.vb or WmpAxControl.cs in the Windows Forms Designer. From the Toolbox, add the Windows Media Player control to the design surface. In the Properties window, set the value of the Windows Media Player control's Dock property to Fill. Build the WmpAxLib control library project.
  • ActiveX Controls in Microsoft Excel ActiveX controls can be used on worksheet forms, with or without the use of VBA code, and on VBA UserForms. ActiveX controls provide more flexible design requirements than those provided by Form controls.
  • Dec 01, 2020 ActiveX Controls in Modern Edge Browser Sometime in the future Internet Explorer is going away and it will be necessary to use the Modern Edge browser. Currently, ActiveX controls won't load properly in Chromium Edge unless the website URL is added to the Enterprise Mode List (IE11 compatibility mode).

Description
This policy setting specifies the Microsoft ActiveX« initialization security level for all Microsoft Office applications. ActiveX controls can adversely affect a computer directly. In addition, malicious code can be used to compromise an ActiveX control and attack a computer. To indicate the safety of an ActiveX control, developers can denote them as Safe For Initialization (SFI). SFI indicates that a control is safe to open and run, and that it is not capable of causing a problem for any computer, regardless of whether it has persisted data values or not. If a control is not marked SFI, it is possible that the control could adversely affect a computer--or it could mean that the developers did not test the control in all situations and are not sure whether it might be compromised in the future. If you enable this policy setting, you can set the ActiveX security level to a number between 1 and 6. These security levels are as follows: 1 - Regardless of how the control is marked, load it and use the persisted values (if any). This setting does not prompt the user. 2 - If SFI, load the control in safe mode and use persisted values (if any). If not SFI, load in unsafe mode with persisted values (if any), or use the default (first-time initialization) settings. This level is similar to the default configuration, but does not prompt the user. 3 - If SFI, load the control in unsafe mode and use persisted values (if any). If not SFI, prompt the user and advise them that it is marked unsafe. If the user chooses No at the prompt, do not load the control. Otherwise, load it with default (first-time initialization) settings. 4 - If SFI, load the control in safe mode and use persisted values (if any). If not SFI, prompt the user and advise them that it is marked unsafe. If the user chooses No at the prompt, do not load the control. Otherwise, load it with default (first-time initialization) settings. 5 - If SFI, load the control in unsafe mode and use persisted values (if any). If not SFI, prompt the user and advise them that it is marked unsafe. If the user chooses No at the prompt, do not load the control. Otherwise, load it with persisted values. 6 - If SFI, load the control in safe mode and use persisted values (if any). If not SFI, prompt the user and advise them that it is marked unsafe. If the user chooses No at the prompt, do not load the control. Otherwise, load it with persisted values. If you disable or do not configure this policy setting, if a control is marked SFI, the application loads the control in safe mode and uses persisted values (if any). If the control is not marked SFI, the application loads the control in unsafe mode with persisted values (if any), or uses the default (first-time initialization) settings. In both situations, the Message Bar informs users that the controls have been disabled and prompts them to respond. Important - Some ActiveX controls do not respect the safe mode registry setting, and therefore might load persisted data even though you configure this setting to instruct the control to use safe mode. This setting only increases security for ActiveX controls that are accurately marked as SFI. In situations that involve malicious or poorly designed code, an ActiveX control might be inaccurately marked as SFI.

To enable improved interaction with browsers, you can use Microsoft ActiveX controls in your WPF-based application. This walkthrough demonstrates how you can host the Microsoft Windows Media Player as a control on a WPF page.

Tasks illustrated in this walkthrough include:

  • Creating the project.

  • Creating the ActiveX control.

  • Hosting the ActiveX control on a WPF Page.

When you have completed this walkthrough, you will understand how to use Microsoft ActiveX controls in your WPF-based application.

Prerequisites

You need the following components to complete this walkthrough:

  • Microsoft Windows Media Player installed on the computer where Visual Studio is installed.

  • Visual Studio 2010.

Creating the Project

To create and set up the project

  1. Create a WPF Application project named HostingAxInWpf.

  2. Add a Windows Forms Control Library project to the solution, and name the project WmpAxLib.

  3. In the WmpAxLib project, add a reference to the Windows Media Player assembly, which is named wmp.dll.

  4. Open the Toolbox.

  5. Right-click in the Toolbox, and then click Choose Items.

  6. Click the COM Components tab, select the Windows Media Player control, and then click OK.

    The Windows Media Player control is added to the Toolbox.

  7. In Solution Explorer, right-click the UserControl1 file, and then click Rename.

  8. Change the name to WmpAxControl.vb or WmpAxControl.cs, depending on the language.

  9. If you are prompted to rename all references, click Yes.

Creating the ActiveX Control

Visual Studio automatically generates an AxHost wrapper class for a Microsoft ActiveX control when the control is added to a design surface. The following procedure creates a managed assembly named AxInterop.WMPLib.dll.

To create the ActiveX control

  1. Open WmpAxControl.vb or WmpAxControl.cs in the Windows Forms Designer.

  2. From the Toolbox, add the Windows Media Player control to the design surface.

  3. In the Properties window, set the value of the Windows Media Player control's Dock property to Fill.

  4. Build the WmpAxLib control library project.

To host the ActiveX control

See Full List On Support.microsoft.com

  1. In the HostingAxInWpf project, add a reference to the generated ActiveX interoperability assembly.

    This assembly is named AxInterop.WMPLib.dll and was added to the Debug folder of the WmpAxLib project when you imported the Windows Media Player control.

  2. Add a reference to the WindowsFormsIntegration assembly, which is named WindowsFormsIntegration.dll.

  3. Add a reference to the Windows Forms assembly, which is named System.Windows.Forms.dll.

  4. Open MainWindow.xaml in the WPF Designer.

  5. Name the Grid element grid1.

  6. In Design view or XAML view, select the Window element.

  7. In the Properties window, click the Events tab.

  8. Double-click the Loaded event.

  9. Insert the following code to handle the Loaded event.

    This code creates an instance of the WindowsFormsHost control and adds an instance of the AxWindowsMediaPlayer control as its child.

  10. Press F5 to build and run the application.
