I am having to use a 3rd party ActiveX DLL in my VB6 application.

  • 0

I am having to use a 3rd party ActiveX DLL in my VB6 application. However, now that I’ve included the DLL in the references and used it in code, every time I quit my app, it also quits VB6.

I don’t see anything in the logs or event viewer that would suggest why this is happening.

Is there anyway to prevent this?

Btw, I have contacted the vendor, but they are focused on their .NET products, it seems.

    Just to close this question out… After spending significant time trying various things I ended up writing code that unloaded the control, paused for 5 seconds and then quit app. That seemed to do the trick.
