Title: WordPad run in a control. Iis it possible?
Post by: Marty Francom on April 06, 2009, 07:37:40 PM
Jose,  Is it possible to launch/run  WordPad  inside a control.  In a manor similar to the "Web-Browser" control?

I would like it to be a child process of a program I am working on, rather than a separate program that was "Shell"ed

You can use the VB6 OCX version but you may have a problem setting the control to multiline(?)
But usually we use the RichEdit windowclass but by default lacks picture/object support.
For specific code for that you can find that on the PB forum.

Sorry, but WordPad is not a COM server and is not embeddable.
