Registering an ActiveX Server

Before you can import an ActiveX control library or automation library, that type library must be registered in the operating system registry of the workstation into which it is being imported.

To register an ActiveX server

  1. Select the Register Server command from the ActiveX submenu of the Components menu when the External Components Browser is the current window.

    The common file Open dialog is then displayed, to enable you to locate the ActiveX type library object. (The file suffix can be .dll, .exe, or .ocx, for example.)

  2. When you have located the required file, click the OK button to register the ActiveX server with your Windows operating system registry.

You can now import the ActiveX object contained in the registered type library into your JADE development environment.
