ActiveX vs. .NET versions of teechart.dll

Both the activex and .net pro versions of TeeCharts have a teechart.dll. My application builds fine against the .net pro (version 1) dll but won't build against the activex (v8) dll. Is this a difference in the versions? Or is this a difference in the what's included in the dll?
To put it another way, would version 8 of the .net pro version and version 8 of the activex both contain the same teechart.dll?

Hi dx0ddyu02,

Yes, Absolutelly. One Dll is for TeeChart Pro ActiveX and the other one is for TeeChart for .NET. They are different controls. Even the architecture, functionality and syntax is very similar, they are not the same and applications made with one control will not build with the other version.
To put it another way, would version 8 of the .net pro version and version 8 of the activex both contain the same teechart.dll?
No. TeeChart Pro ActiveX is a COM control which is a COM wrapper of TeeChart Pro VCL while TeeChart for .NET is a native .NET control fully written in managed C#.
