Beginners guide to non visible ActiveX control for Web Deployment

This is what I am looking for.
Any beginners info.
So far I have not seen much information on how to
create a ActiveX control for Web Deployment.

I have seen the wizards but they seem to make
ActiveX controls based on VCL where I just need
a little nonvisible control.

There isnt much on this subject so Where should
I start reading.

Thanks Bob.

Are you looking for info on ActiveForms.  This allows you to wrap an
entire form inside an ActiveX control and publish it on the Web.  There
is a chapter on this subject in
Borland C++ Builder 4  (Kent Reisdorph)

No actually I am looking to create an ActiveX control
that has no GUI at all. Its for a corporate Intranet
and we need to check to see if an application is
running.

Bob, I think you could create a simple Automation server that has a
'IsOurAppRunning' property. Then, in the HTML, you create an instance of
that server and read its property.
Of course, this will work in IE only.

HTH,
Alex
