Question: Auto-download ActiveX control if user does not have

[VB Programmer]

I have a webform that uses an ActiveX control. I want the user to
automatically download the ActiveX control if he doesn't have it. How can I
do this? Also, does it need to be registered too? Can this be automated?

Thanks,
Robert

Hi,
Create a CAB for that ActiveX and use the Object CodeBase attribute to
set the CAB location. IE will check if the current version on client
machine meets the one in the object tag. If not the cab will be called
and execute.
