How to Create Custom Controls for use in Access

G

g18c

Hi, i have a filter control which i would like to reuse many times
throughout forms on my access database. This would be ideal to turn
into a componenet but i dont know where to start. I am ah expert C#
developer and can hack together VB ok too, but i cant find anything on
the net on creating custom controls for office (generally i only
develop standalone apps).

Is it possible to create activex controls which can accept access
office controls, such as comboboxes so i can change the datasource
strings? Or am i better off creating a module and hooking up the
controls to the back end code manually on each form load? What are my
options?

Many thanks in advance,

Chris
