hi Is it possible to call or to instatiate a COM object inside another COM? im using a 3rd party tool which is an ActiveX COM library and i want to use it inside my own COM object, like for example issuing a CoCreateInstance inside the COM? I havent tried that one since were I am still creating a sample application( which is an MFC) for using the 3rd party COM and me myself doesnt have any experience in writing COM, I just knw how to use them. If its not posible how can i use this 3rd part ActiveX tool then inside my COM? this 3rd party tool that i have is my only solution to my problems since its the only one i found free in the internet and doesnt require a huge amount of time implementing.

It's legal to create and manipulate COM objects from within another COM object so long as you don't introduce a reference cycle.
