Question

I have developed a custom visual basic 6 control and declared a few custom events. Is it possible in vb6 to raise these events from a module or I need to implement a special “proxy” methods in my control to do this?

Answer 1

RaiseEvent:

Compile error:
Only valid in object module.

(Which makes sense.)

Yes, you need a Friend method on your class that you would call to raise events from your module:

Class:

Public Event Click()

Friend Sub OnClick()
  RaiseEvent Click
End Sub

Module:

someVar.OnClick
