+\subsection{Detailed Description}
+Main class for embedding a Active\-X control.
+
+Use by itself or derive from it \begin{Desc}
+\item[Note:]The utility program (wxie) can generate a list of events, methods \& properties for a control. First display the control (File$|$Display), then get the type info (Active\-X$|$Get Type Info) - these are copied to the clipboard. Eventually this will be expanded to autogenerate wx\-Windows source files for a control with all methods etc encapsulated. \end{Desc}
+\begin{Desc}
+\item[Usage: ]construct using a Prog\-Id or class id 
+
+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} new wxActiveX(parent, CLSID_WebBrowser, id, pos, size, style, name)
+\end{verbatim}\normalsize

+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} new wxActiveX(parent, "ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash", id, pos, size, style, name)
+\end{verbatim}\normalsize
+\end{Desc}
+\begin{Desc}
+\item[Properties]Properties can be set using {\tt {\bf Set\-Prop()}}  and set/retrieved using {\tt {\bf Prop()}}  
+
+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} SetProp(name, wxVariant(x)) 
+\end{verbatim}\normalsize

+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} wxString Prop("<name>") = x
+\end{verbatim}\normalsize

+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} wxString result = Prop("<name>")

+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} wxString current_movie = flash_ctl.Prop("movie");
+\end{verbatim}\normalsize
+\end{Desc}
+\begin{Desc}
+\item[Methods]Methods are invoked with {\tt {\bf Call\-Method()}}  
+
+\footnotesize\begin{verbatim} wxVariant result = CallMethod("<name>", args, nargs = -1)

+\end{Desc}
+\begin{Desc}
+\item[events]respond to events with the {\tt {\bf EVT\_\-ACTIVEX(control\-Id, event\-Name, handler)}}  \& {\tt {\bf EVT\_\-ACTIVEX\_\-DISPID(control\-Id, event\-Disp\-Id, handler)}}  macros
