Using ActiveX with Win32

How can use an ActiveX control on my win32 programming, so that I can create the ActiveX control on a window, place it at a specific coordinate, and handle its messages.

Using ActiveX 'from scratch' in a WIn32 program is very difficult.  You are much better off trying with ATL or MFC as a way to get started.  The support classes that are provided in these frameworks exist just because doing it by hand is arduous and fraught with peril.  Or use JScript or VB.

I just want to place an activeX control(.ocx) already created, on my window. I am writing the window code using win32 programming.
Yes, we know that.

I am eagerly waiting for some technical suggestion from jhance. Is there no way to use a custom made ActiveX control on my window? Plz give me some idea if any body have.
