Also, ActiveX or COM files can now be 64-Bit. I was able to make a 64-Bit
COM DLL using VC and use it in VB6 for a special purpose.

Hi All,

Sorry for the late answer.

My ocx is free and open source. The author ( I forget his name ) called
it Sox. The problem :
1. Connection process
It takes long time. Sometimes fail sometimes success.
2. Transmission process
Sometimes fails
These happen on not-busy computers ( 2 computers ) with one small data
(not more than 64 chars) to transfer from each other every 3 minutes. It
is hard for me to correct the sorce code.

Regards
Rony

Maybe you can use this!

But I have not tested it.
