507 Desmond - November 23, 2001

I am using MapPoint Control in another ActiveX control, which is loaded by a web page. The following is the Terminate() method in the ActiveX, hoping to help it better unload the Mappoint Control, since I don't know how to signal it to unload Private Sub UserControl_Terminate() oMap.Saved = True Set oMap = Nothing End Sub However, if I close IE instead of go to another page, the Mappoint Control may be failed to unload itself. On Windows2000, this will leave an orphan MapPoint process running there forever, and on Window 98, it simply crush the OS. But if I move to another page, close browser after, say, 3 minutes, everything will be fine. So I guess it's because Mappoint needs time to unload but the container did wait. So, how to unload MappointControl explicitly? and how do I know if it is unloaded successfully, so I can kill myself safely ? Thanks a lot! Desmond

Answer:

I think you're running into issues that are specific to using the ActiveX Control inside Internet Explorer. Microsoft doesn't support the OCX in this environment, so you're probably out of luck.
