VPE 3.10 and .Net

[paul_lajoie]

I have a large app that use VPE 3.10. I recently purchased licenses for the latest version (6). However, we cannot upgrade our application logic for the time being and need to use VPE 3.10 with VB.Net.

Can you provide a code example on how to do this? We previously used the VB6 but the application is now converted to .Net. We get initialization errors when we instanciate the OCX in the similar way we used to with VB6 :

Code: Select all

Unable to get the window handle for the 'AxVPE' control. Windowless ActiveX controls are not supported.

Thanks cheers

VPE v3.10 is from the year 2000 and no longer supported. We do not know if or how it can be used with .NET.

Even if your application is large, the changes which have to be applied to make it work with VPE v6.0 are very small and can be done very quickly (mainly by search & replace). We recommend to use the current version of VPE, since it is supported.
