Itai,

>Why am I getting the error message “error ALK2102: unresolved external 
>symbol ACTIVEXOBJECT” with 575?  How to fix this?

If you RTFM under "ActiveXObject()", you will find that it requires the 
following files: "ActiveX.ch" and "AsCom10.lib".

The "ActiveX.ch" file also contains a #pragma Library("AsCom10.lib"), so all 
you need to do is add: #Include "ActiveX.ch" to your program file(s). Adding 
the "ActiveX.ch" and "AsCom10.lib" files also to your Project file might 
also be a good idea.

You will need to do that, whenever you want to use any kind of COM/ActiveX 
(OCX) automation objects or controls in your code.

If you already have those header and library files included in your project 
and still get an error message, make sure that your development environment 
is complete and all the necessary files can be found.

Hope that helps,

Andreas
