Default Control for Drawing

Hi guys,
I am new to .NET and to this forum, I need your help to develop an application.

I need to make a display area which will show a web version of autocad drawing. I am not sure what control to use to make this happen.

However, it works in a web browser with the help of a plugin named "Volo Viewer" .

Any idea how it can work?

I will really appreciate your help.
Jazz

I have AutoCAD 2002 installed here, and yes, you can add the
Volo View control to your form.

Right-click on the toolbox, then click Customize Toolbox. Select the
COM Components tab and check the box next to the "Autodesk
Volo View Control" and hit OK. Now the Volo View control will be
added to the toolbox and you can draw it on the form.

When distributing this app, you'll need to also distribute this
control, or have the user install Volo View first (which will probably
install the control).

I've never worked with it, but here is a link to Autodesk's site
that tells how to use it. Keep in mind the code is VB6 (since
ActiveX controls are designed for that), but you should be able to
get the gist of how to use it.
