"Microsoft ImageList Control 6.0 (SP4)" "MSComctlLib.ImageListCtrl.2" "{2C247F23-8591-11D1-B16A-00C0F0283628}"
ActiveX Controls have been deprecated by Microsoft in the latest versions of the Windows operating system in favor of the DotNet framework and its controls.
While MAXScript still supports ActiveX controls, these have to be installed and registered on the system to be accessible to MAXScript.
As a replacement of ActiveX controls, MAXScript supports DotNet controls in 3ds Max 9 and higher.
The ImageList ActiveX Control can be used to create, manage and supply images to other ActiveX Controls like the ListView ActiveX Control and the TreeView ActiveX Control to be used as icons.
