ActiveX Control works fine in VB but not in ASP

[Miguel Guerreiro]

I have an ActiveX Control that I am trying to make work from an ASP
page, but so far all I got is great frustation! My Control is well
registered (and working fine from a VB stand-alone program I made in
the same computer)

Every time I load the ASP page I get a "Object does not support this
property or method : SigBox1.IsOn".

Initially, I thought that the error was caused because my Control was
not registered well, so I made a VB program and confirmed that I can
use the control in VB just fine (all methods & properties work).
However, in ASP I only get the control to load with initial settings
in the <OBJECT> tag (see ASP code below). After that i try to access
the control's methods and properties and there is not a single one
that works...all give me the error message described above.

Is there an intermediate step that I am missing after the <OBJECT>
declaration and before the call to its Methods and Properties?????

Here is the ASP code:
