Hi, DISP_FUNCTION_ID : You should define dispatching map for any method in ActiveX to be used for COM. If the map is not set correctly,Method will not be seen anymore. DISP_FUNCTION_ID gets 6 parameters.These are; 1-class,method belongs to 2-External Method name,value can be method name 3-Dispatch id of method,unique number 4-Method 5- Return value should be one of VARENUM in wtypes.h 6- Parameters value defines in afxdisp.h (space is seperator of each params) for example; DISP_FUNCTION_ID(C_X_OleLibraryCtrl, "GetIDLMsg", 1, GetIDLMsg, VT_BSTR /* return type*/, VTS_PVARIANT VTS_BSTR /* two parameters are seperated by empty*/) good luck, P.S. If you have any comments please do not hesitate share.

Selam (Hi in Turkish), if you get an Error : 'error C2065: 'CW2A' : undeclared identifier' in your C++ project(either ActiveX) while compiling the line which is included COLE2T statement (#define COLE2T CW2T in atlconv.h). please check below within your project; 1- Be sure that your project is supported by ATL (if it is ActiveX). To prepare your project for working with ATL , just add class via right click of Project in Microsoft Visual Studio Solution Explorer and select add>class>'Add ATL Support to MFC'.Visual Studio will set up the current project. 2- use statement with ATL:: prefix ( ATL::COLE2T lpszIID(lpszOleIID) ).
