ActiveX Control on Web Page

[James Gordon]

I have VB6 ActiveX document application.

I know I can't upgrade directly to VB.NET.

How can I allow the user to use IE as user interface in VB.NET?

I know a Web Form is the way to go but I have 3rd party ActiveX controls
I MUST use.

How can I write a VB.NET app which will run in a browser AND support ActiveX
controls?

Thanks in advance.

Both WebForms and WinForms allow you to continue to use ActiveX controls.
A Winforms Form can act as an ActiveX host site. Additionally, the AXHost
class exposes the ActiveX control as a winforms control.
WebForms still spit out HTML, and you can imbed ActiveX controls in it as
usual.
