Reposting: Problems accessing Windows Controls in Web page

Hello All,
I am trying to develop a windows control to use in ASP.NET page.
I have seen the samples given by .NET Framework and trying to repeat the
same with my own pages.

I succeded half way but important part is still missing :(

Tried to use SimpleControl(.Net Samples
QuickStart/winforms/samplesWritingControls/SimpleControl..)

Created a solution called Test
Added a project called WinControl and added a new class item. Named it as
Simple
Now the Simple class is part of Test.WinControl name space All this control
does it paints itself to Yellow in the constructor.
This part works as I(everybody in the world probably :) ) tested it

Next I created a web application called IEDemo
in the default webpage webform1.asp I added the following to display my
control
<object height="500" width="300" id="Simple"
classid=http://localhost/../WinControl/bin/Debug/WindowsControl.dll#Test.Win
Control.Simple VIEWASTEXT>
</object>

and this fails to load(not showing control except that it draws a rectangle
with the size I specified)

I created a virtual directory called abc and pointed that to the
winControl/binDebug
and changed the above to

<object height="500" width="300" id="Simple"
classid=http://localhost/abc/WindowsControl.dll#Test.WinControl.Simple
VIEWASTEXT>
</object>


and it works like a charm. What is wrong in my code. I understand that it is
unable to find the Control but even to use a thrid party control in my
webpage what should I do if I get it as a DLL !!!??

Thanks for the help
programmer
