Hello, I have several custom VCL components written in Delphi 7, all of them inheriting from TDataSet. With the arrival of .NET I would like to port my unmanaged code to a managed one. My ultimate goal is to use these components in an ASP.NET application. What would be the best approach to achieve this migration? My biggest concern is that there is no managed equivalent of the TDataSet component. I also thought of creating some sort of a "proxy" (presumably COM object) for my components that would allow me importing them in .NET. But, here again, I cannot create an ActiveX component because my class doesn't inherit from TWinControl and thus not showing in the Project->New->Other->ActiveX wizard. So, right now I am at the middle of nothing, without any ideas and I would greatly appreciate all your comments and recommendations concerning this issue. What are the possible ways to handle this? Rewriting everything from scratch would be a really long way. Thanks, DARIN
