OCX File Format

OCX is a file extension for a custom control file format used by ActiveX forms. OCX is used for interface behaviors that are triggered by users or programs; like resizing windows or scroll bar movement.

OCX stands for “OLE control extension.” OCX files were first referred to as Linking and Embedding (OLE) custom controls, but are known now as ActiveX controls.
