Building and Running the Sample
To build the sample
Open the solution ActiveDoc.sln.
From the Build menu, click Build Solution.
To run the sample using Internet Explorer
Open ActiveDoc.htm or the ActiveDoc.AAA generated file in Internet Explorer (to open ActiveDoc.AAA, click the Open button when prompted to open this file).
Use the Format menu that has been merged into Internet Explorer's menu bar, or just click the toolbar colors to change the color of the typed text.
To run the sample using Microsoft Office Binder
Run Microsoft Office Binder and from the Section menu click Add.
Select the icon labeled "ActiveDoc Class" and click OK.
You should see the object embedded in Office Binder. Notice that the menus have been merged and the ActiveDoc's toolbar is shown. You can enter text and use the menu and toolbar buttons to change the color of the text that is typed.
Sample Files
The sample includes the following main files:
ActiveCtl.h
ActiveCtl.cpp — implements CActiveDoc, which represents the overall ActiveDoc object.
OleDocument.h — contains the implementation of the IOleDocument and IOleDocumentView interfaces.
Toolbar.h — contains CToolbar, which helps with the implementation of the toolbar.
