Hi, If you are using the PPMs from www.wxperl.co.uk, you can get Wx::ActiveX from there.
If you have built Wx / wxWidgets yourself and want to build Wx::ActiveX, get the code from SVN https://wxperl.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/wxperl/wxActiveX/trunk The creator and maintainer of Wx::ActiveX on CPAN has not been active for a couple of years so updated code is currently in SVN at the wxPerl repository. I have updated the main example so that it provides a Wx::Demo module.
