[mapguide-users] Desktop implementation of MapGuide

[alucas]

Hi Jackie,

DWFViewer is an ActiveX control, in vs2005 you can click "Chose Items..." in
the toolbox and in the tab COM Components if you have the dwfviewer
installed, you will see "Autodesk Dwf Viewer Control". You need to include
this control in the toolbox and you only need to drag & drop this item in
your windows form, the dll's will be added autommatically...

That's all, now, you can use the control trought the
axCExpressViewerControl1 variable that has been created and add the path to
your dwf file, show it etc etc
