| Issue | Description | |-------|-------------| | No design-time visual designer | You cannot drop MSForms controls onto a VB6 Form designer. They must be added via code. | | Licensing (FM20.DLL) | The library is licensed by Microsoft Office. On a machine without Office installed, FM20.DLL may be missing or fail to register, causing runtime errors. | | Redistribution | You generally cannot redistribute FM20.DLL with your VB6 app. It must be present as part of Office or a legally licensed host. | | Property differences | Properties like Font, ForeColor, and BackColor behave differently from VB6 intrinsic controls. | | No native data binding | Unlike VB6 controls, MSForms controls do not directly support the VB6 DataControl binding model. |

The MultiPage control is a container that hosts multiple pages, each acting as a separate form area. It’s perfect for property sheets and wizards. | Control | ProgID | Key props/methods |

' Add a page at runtime
MultiPage1.Pages.Add "NewPage", "Page 2", 1
' Remove first page
MultiPage1.Pages.Remove 0
' Change selected page index
MultiPage1.Value = 1 ' Second page
