You are probably not going to find very many ActiveX controls that act as an embedded driver for talking to devices. Your best bet is to lookf for an OPC toolkit for .Net and use and OPC Server. Kepware Technoliges has an OPC ToolKit called ClientAce which you can download and try out. They also have several Omron drives for the KepserverEX OPC Server that are provided in a single driver suite. Go to Http://www.kepware.com to download both.

I summarize of the manual that I attach. " 1.1 Welcome to CX-Server Lite CX-Server Lite allows PLC data collected by the OMRON CX-Server communications software to be accessed from Microsoft Excel (97 and later), Visual Basic (5.0 and later), and Visual C++ 6.0, as well as Omron CX-Supervisor. From version 1.21 onwards CX-Server Lite also supports use in Windows applications created using the Microsoft Visual Studio .Net environment (use in an ASP.Net environment is not currently supported). In all of these applications, CX-Server Lite allows existing process data to be collected and analysed, via the CX-Server runtime system. " You have information in Download Code (thanks to Jay Anthony). Examples: http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=66 Version Demo (but not the one that allows. Net): http://forums.mrplc.com/index.php?autocom=downloads&showfile=87 He requests current version in Omron. CX_S_Lite_Net_Doc.pdf
