Hello everyone,

I would like to know how this could be possible to embed a wpf user control freshly made into a MS Word document in the same way we used to do with activex control ?

Do you think this is still possible ?

Thank you very much in advance.
Best regards.
MiQi.

This is to be able to paste an active control with data together with the text document. This could also be pasted as a static picture.

Do you think this is possible ?

Thank you.
Regards.
MiQI.

Wrap the WPF control into a Windows Forms' UserControl via ElementHost, then expose this Windows Forms's Control as ActiveX control, please refer to this article on how to do it:

Exposing Windows Forms Controls as ActiveX controls[^]
