File extension ocx is used for Active Control items.
The ocx is an Object Linking and Embedding (OLE) custom control, a special-purpose program that can be created for use by applications running on Microsoft's Windows systems. OCX provides such functions as handling scroll bar movement and window resizing. If you have a Windows system, you'll find a number of files in your Windows directory with the ocx file name suffix.
The ocx (ActiveX control) is actually implemented as a dynamic link library DLL module. (You can think of a DLL program as a "subprogram" that can be used by any number of application programs, each of which is a "container" for the DLL or OCX/ActiveX control "object.") Visual Basic and C++ are commonly used to write OCX or ActiveX controls.
ActiveX control files are for internal purposes of Windows applications. ActiveX control applications (ocx files) can be written in Visual Basic, or C++ programming languages.
Conversion to other formats is not possible.
