: Similar topics about ActiveX problems and VB have been dealt with before in our Forum. Maybe you could have a look that the following messages:
: 7786.html Re: How do I add ActiveX control in Delphi 2005
: 9823.html Importing ActiveX in Delphi 2005
: 10014.html Re: Importing ActiveX in Delphi 2005
: If none of these give a solution, please contact me again in the Forum. BTW, which version / edition of Delphi are you using?

The links seem to be regarding importing a control or OCX. I have an ActiveX EXE file that I am trying to import. I need the process to run in it's own process space. I am using Delphi for some DB work and there is an analysis routine I am using that required using a DLL, unfortunately the DLL causes FPU exceptions which I disabled but in order to run in Windows Vista I have to run as administrator, which not all users of the software can. The solution was to wrap the analysis in an ActiveX EXE and exchange info that way. I can do this in VB but I haven't quite got it in Delphi (2005 by the way). Sorry for the long winded description.

Thanks,

Bob
