ActiveX and BlackBox

How are activeX components used with BlackBox? There are many activeX
components
on the market which are meant to work with Visual Basic, Delphi,
PowerBuilder, C++ etc but never any mention of BlackBox.

Suppose there is an activeX control which plots a series of (x, y) points.
There seems to be three problems

i) telling BlackBox where the control is
ii) putting data ie the (x, y) into the controll
iii) making the control appear in a BlackBox view

Has anyone got simple examples of how this is done?

Any help will be much appreciated
