C++ source To demonstrate how to aggregate an OCX control I
have used the MFC control wizard to create a control called 'Number' which can be found in a directory of that name. It has two properties called 'Number1' and 'Number2' and has no methods. Each property is in fact a 'short' and the control simply draws these values in its window.

GLBEDIT: Raises Text Size Limit for Edit Controls
GLBEDIT demonstrates how an edit control can have its own data segment and thus increase its text size. By default, the buffer for an edit control is allocated from the application's data segment. Space is a scarce resource in the data segment because the segment also stores information for othe...
