When I embed an OCX control in a R6.01 CF1 form (Create->Object, select “Control”), the Notes client crashes immediately. I can get other OCX’s to work properly. I am just having problem with this one. (FYI - in R5 I get a “Generic LSE Failure (no more info)” and then the client crashes). I can duplicate this problem on multiple machines.
There is no problem using this control in Visual Basic. Are there other options to access this control other than embedding it in a Notes form? (Can I access it using LotusScript and referencing the file on the local hard disk?) Does anyone have any ideas/sample code?
The only option I came up with is to write a Visual Basic wrapper for the program that Notes would call/execute. Has anyone done this before? Is there an elegant way to pass data to the Visual Basic program (as opposed to a text file/ODBC?)
Thanks!
