PB6 interface to VB5

Question:
How can I use VB5 components from within PB6? Can VB5 deliver a DLL that we can communicate with, or are there better methods?

Answer:
The best method of communicating between the two products is through the use of COM. You can create an OCX or an OLE Automation Object in VB and then call the object in PB.
