How to Install an ActiveX control in Access XP?

[Mota]

Hi;
I need a MsComm control to connect to my modem.So i downloaded a compressed
file from Microsoft Downloads as the name of NewVBterm.EXE.After
decompressing,it has some VB form files (.frm) and a NewVBterm.VBP file.
By the way,i have another file named MsComm.vbx.
Can i import this ActiveX Control and use it in my program?If no,is there
another way to send some characters to modem and get something from it thru
code?
Thank you so much in advance.

Hi,


I doubt you can use MSCOMM32.dll in a development environment
without developer license.

You can check

replacement (under Software Downloads).
