The Object property returns nothing if element hosts no ActiveX or creating it failed. The Object property returns a reference to newly created control. The ExSurface control fires the OLEEvent event if an inside ActiveX control fires an event. Use the ElementFormat property to specify the area where the inner control is displayed. The InsertControl property adds a new Element object with the Type set on exElementHostControl, and so it hosts an ActiveX inside. The Control property returns the control's identifier. The License property specifies the runtime-license of the control. For instance, if the Control property is "Exontrol.Button", the Object property returns a reference to an Exontrol.Button object. If the Control property is "Exontrol.Grid" the Object property returns a reference to an Exontrol.Grid object.
