method Control.Create ()
Creates the component.

TypeDescription
The Create method creates the ActiveX control. The Create method creates the control based on its control's identifier. Use the ControlID and LicenseKey properties to specify the control's identifier and the runtime license key for the control, if required ( please make sure that the runtime license key is not identical with your development license key ). If the Create method fails, the Object property gets nothing. Use the Object property to access the ActiveX control's properties and methods. Use the CloseOn property to specify how the item that hosts an ActiveX control is closed using the mouse. Use the Width and Height properties to specify the size of the item that hosts the ActiveX control. The control fires the OleEvent event when an inside ActiveX control fires an event. The look and feel of the inner ActiveX control depends on the identifier you are using, and the version of the library that implements the ActiveX control, so you need to consult the documentation of the inner ActiveX control you are inserting inside the eXMenu control.

In case you are using the /NET assembly version, you can use the Window property to assign a Window/Control to an Item.

The following screen shot displays an item with an ExCalendar inside:

The following samples shows how to load an ActiveX control ( Exontrol.Calendar )
