Is it possible to use an ActiveX DLL in a FF console application?

I have used one in a normal FF project. But the way I did this was to use the OCX/ActiveX control in the FF toolbox. And of course, this is not available in a Console project.

Is there some other way to do this? Probably pure PB with no assistance from FF?

TIA,
Art

Non visual ActiveX DLLs such ADO can be used; visual ActiveX don't.

Thanks Jose.

The ActiveX DLL I need to use is non-visual. How do I use this in FF?
