Or so I thought, but it has been a while, and it seems ActiveX is deprecated. What is the replacement?
Anyhow, the real question probably would be: make controlling Windows apps from Java easier. As an example: I have some VB6 code in place (as said, it has been a while) at a client that controls PaintShop to run through some steps while fetching data from a database. I would have preferred to do that based on my in Java written domain model, but the existing ActiveX options in Java were (are?) buggy.
