Question
Hello Adrian,
I am trying to establish Intranet service in my office. I want to publish some information from my database with Web Page, but I am not proficient in HTML programming. I can more less program in VB. I use VB 6.0 to create a kind of data ActiveX control with VB. When I use this control with VB Project or with VB Form, it works well. Now I am trying to use this Control in HTML Page. It works also, but every time when I open page, I become a message "Some Software (ActiveX controls) on this page might be unsafe. it is recommended that you not run it. Do you want to allow it to run?" When I answer Yes, it works. My question is: How I can avoid this message?

Thank you in advance

Answer
Your ActiveX Control doesn't have a digital signature, so you must lower security for your browser. In IE go to Tools/Internet Options/Security/Intranet and choose Custom; will see there some options regarding ActiveX security - play with them and have fun!!!
