ActiveX property page in Powerpoint

J

Johan

Hi,

I'm writing an activex control which will be used in office 2003, Powerpoint
mainly. The control is written in C++ using Visual Studio .NET. I'm using
stock properties, such as background/foreground color and font properties,
and have added stock property pages for those properties. I've also got
several custom properties with their own custom property page implemented.
The problem is, when using Powerpoint, the property pages do not change the
properties. In other Office 2003 products, such as Word, Excel and even
Outlook, the property pages work just fine.

Any ideas why this is?

Also, are .NET applications making activex obsolete? My ActiveX control acts
sort of as a media player embedded in Office applications, could I do the
same thing using a .NET component?

Regards
