What is a Component?

Answer Posted / guest

If you compile an ActiveX dll, it becomes a component. If
you compile an ActiveX Control, it becomes both a component
and a control. Component is a general term used to
describe code that's grouped by functionality. More
specifically, a component in COM terms is a compiled
collection of properties/methods and events. Typically a
component is loaded into your project via the References
whereas an ActiveX Control is loaded into your project
via "components".
