   This doesn't directly answer your questions, but you can not distribute   
   the MS Forms controls.   
   This means your users HAVE to have MS Office (or a few other select MS   
   apps) to be able to run your app.   
      
   Additionally, there must be a similar .net based control rather than   
   shoehorning an ActiveX control into a .NET app.
