Windows 7 ActiveX DLL 32-bit vs 64-bit
I have a proprietary program with a programmable interface consisting of an ActiveX DLL. It works properly on a 64-bit version of Windows 7 but not on a 32-bit version. Is there such a thing as an emulator for 32-bit Windows that would make ActiveX work as though it were the 64-bit version?- jsampson1945
