Upgrading Visual Basic Projects
For Users of ActiveToolBars:
It is easy to upgrade an existing Visual Basic project directly from ActiveToolBars to ActiveToolBars Plus. Run the Sheridan Conversion Utility, which can be accessed from the Start Menu (in the ActiveToolBars Plus group) and follow the directions.
For Users of Designer Widgets:
Although there is no direct procedure for upgrading a project from Designer Widgets to ActiveToolBars Plus, existing Designer Widgets Toolsets can be converted using the Sheridan Toolset Conversion Wizard, located on the Start Menu, in the ActiveToolBars Plus group.
For more details, see the Upgrade Notes section of the help file.
Known Control Issues
The ActiveTabs control, like most container controls, does not function properly when inserted directly into an HTML document. Almost all container controls experience problems when directly placed in an HTML document. However, the ActiveTabs control should function normally when wrapped, such as when it is embedded within an ActiveX User Control or Document.
For other known control issues, see the Known Issues section of the help file.
