To use an ActiveX control in your forms and reports,

  1. In the Form or Report designer, choose File|Set Up ActiveX Components.
    The dialog box that appears shows all available controls registered on your system.

  2. Select the desired controls.

Selected controls appear on the ActiveX page of the Component palette, ready for use. After placing a component on a form, the Inspector shows the properties of the ActiveX control. To use the control’s own property dialog box, right-click the control and choose ActiveX Properties from the context menu.
