Thank you David! I really appreciate the offer. For now, I'm most
interested in the interfaces you mentioned not being available in the
ActiveX control. I eventually want to create an XPCOM wrapper using Java
by taking advantage of the JSword code.
Again, I thank you for the help!

Has anyone attempted to create a Sword application using Visual

like to set references to the Sword API and use VB to create a front
end. In the end, I'm mostly interested in bridging the cap between
the Sword API and Mozilla's Gecko engine. They have an easy to use
ActiveX control I can use in VB. This is the only reason I would even
imagine doing a Sword front end in VB. I plan to eventually migrate
to using Java as an XPCOM bridge between the Sword API (actually
JSword) and Mozilla's Gecko engine. This would allow me to make the
front end cross platform. But I want to create a proof of concept
using VB first. Any help is appreciated.

I have already experimented with the Mozilla ActiveX control (in C++,
not VB). There are some interfaces that are not implemented in the
control that would need to be available to provide the current
functionality available in BibleCS. I have not attempted to learn
anything about XPCOM, but it would be a more direct approach and most
likely all of the needed interfaces would probably be exposed through it.
If you continue to work with the control, and run into any problems
let me know and I will help you in anyway I can.
