Installation

To install IXF ActiveX Control run SETUP.EXE on the first distribution diskette or on the CD-ROM or on the folder where you've downloaded and expanded the file IXF.ZIP.

The following files will be installed into your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory (WINNT\SYSTEM32 on NT systems) only if their version number is higher:

IXF.ocx	This file contains the 32-bit OCX version of ActiveX control.
IXF.chm	Contains control's Html Help.
Asycfilt.dll	Microsoft OLE 2.40 for Windows NT(TM) and Windows 95(TM) Operating Systems
Stdole2.tlb	Microsoft OLE 2.40 for Windows NT(TM) and Windows 95(TM) Operating Systems
Oleaut32.dll	Microsoft OLE 2.40 for Windows NT(TM) and Windows 95(TM) Operating Systems
Olepro32.dll
Msvbvm60.dll	Visual Basic run-time dll.
Msstkprp.dll	Visual Basic property page dll.

The following files will be installed into the program directory specified during installation:

IXFManual.pdf	Contains control's user manual.
Sample	A directory containing the control's samples source code (VB 5.0/6.0) and executables.

Note: To remove IXF ActiveX Control from your system use Add/Remove Programs from the Windows Control Panel.

Installing IXF ActiveX Control in Visual Basic

To install and use IXF ActiveX Control in Visual Basic there are slight differences between these processes in Visual Basic 5 and Visual Basic 6, but they are largely superficial.

The figures that follow show dialogs and screens used to install IXF ActiveX Control in Visual Basic 5/6.

In Visual Basic 5/6, select the Components command from the Project menu. It will present the dialog shown in figure below.
Check the box next to the control you want to use and click the OK button. In the figure below the control "Kadmos IXF ActiveX Control" has been selected.

If the control does not appear in the list, click the Browse button and locate the IXF ActiveX control's .OCX file. Select the file and click OK.

At this point Visual Basic will add entries to your system registry so the control will be listed in the future.

After you have selected the control, it will appear in the toolbox along with Visual Basic's controls as showed in the figure below.

Registering IXF ActiveX Control

Registering IXF ActiveX Control is a very simple task. After purchasing the registration code invoke the about method clicking on the ellipses near the word "About" in the properties window (see figure below).

Next click on the Register... button in the About Box. It will show a dialog window for typing in the registration code.

Alternatively, you can click the Register... button on the control's properties window that appears pressing the right mouse button over the control and selecton the Properties command from the context menu.
