title: how to get control back from axtivex component to windown form in vb.net
body: <p>I am writing a code in vb.net to create a client control front end for a controller card software.
  what i have done is created a activeX component on this controller software on my windows form so that i can access its dll.
  my problem is when i call a certain method of this software it shifts control to that software since it is waiting for input on that software and my windows form becomes inactive. i cannot do anything on my windows form. 
  i want my windows from to be active in all cases.
  can anyone help me?</p>
