Interact with an ActiveX via a context menu

[Oriane]

Hi there,

I've built an Asp.Net web site which launchs a ActiveX executable. When I
launch this activeX from a session, with the session account, an icon
associated with this activeX is displayed in the notification zone of the
taskbar. Then I can display the contextual menu of this activeX.

Now when I load my we site, of course nothing appears in the toolbar since
the activeX is started "in the background", and I need a way to make it
appears to be able to interact with the ActiveX. That is to say, to be able
to state a sort of display to the aspnet account...

Any hint ?

Best regards

you need to change your approach a little. create a .net (console or winform)
that hosts the active/x control and put it in the startup group for your
login. this app shoudl implement .net remoting and act as a proxy for the
active/x control. then you aspx page that need to talk to the active/x
control will use remotimg.
