Developing and deploying a PowerBuilder window ActiveX application

There are four main tasks involved in developing a PowerBuilder window ActiveX application.

To create and deploy a PowerBuilder window ActiveX application:

Create, test, and build the PowerBuilder application.
Create an HTML page that includes your PowerBuilder application window.
Configure the Web server by copying the HTML page and PBD files for the application to appropriate directories.
On all client workstations, install and register the PowerBuilder window ActiveX control and install the PowerBuilder runtime DLLs.

Resulting components

When everything is set up, the various computers have the components listed in Table 34-1.
