Visual Basic OCX support?

Got an idea for enhancing PureBasic? New command(s) you'd like to see?

How hard would it be to add Visual Basic OCX support to PureBasic?
I've seen that Mr Skunk has created a DLL library to access DLLs,
and I understand that OCXs are very similar items?

uups, OCX (Or named as ActiveX) are based on OLE.
It seems that there are only 4 Functions to export in the OCX.
And a OCX is no normal DLL.It has these 4 Functions to encapsulate
more Functions etc... )You only can use OCX with help from the OLE-Library
(Windows itselfs).
I think that implement OCX in PureBasic is very hard.

I'd like to programm DLL's in PureBasic, and then use them in Visual-Basic.
I think that direction would be more intresting.
