TID101868 (xbcpp) - ActiveX Controls with Borland C-plus-plusBuilder

From Developer Community

There have been several customers reporting problems with importing Novell's ActiveX controls (or other 3rd party controls) into Borland's/Inprise's C++ Builder. The error message typically is

> Can't import ActiveX. > Compiler error: not an allowed type.

Reportedly these problems can be fixed by getting the latest patches to the C++Builder (namely get the latest TLIBIMP.exe) from Inprise at http://www.inprise.com/devsupport/bcppbuilder/file_supplements.html - you may run TLIBIMP from the command line before importing the controls in the IDE.

There is some additional information about ActiveX controls and C++Builder on Inprise's web site at http://www.inprise.com/bcppbuilder
