Activate (ActiveX contol) based on COM Interop with free registration

I have a COM interop based ActiveX contol that I am trying to use with free registration. When the control is loaded, the control is inactive (does not respond to events, the control is not fully displayed, etc.).

After a lot of searching, I found that COM objects using reg-free-com are using the miscStatus attribute to set the initial state correctly. I know how to use it with comClass which corresponds to the native COM object.

1) What is the equivalent of the following clrClass element that corresponds to a COM interop object?

<comClass clsid="{qqqqqqqq-wwww-eeee-rrrr-00C0F0283628}"               
    tlbid="{xxxxxxxx-yyyy-zzzz-aaaa-0000F8754DA1}"               
    threadingModel="Both"                  
    progid="SomeCompany.SomeOleControl"               
    description="Some ActiveX Control"
    miscStatus="recomposeonresize,insideout,activatewhenvisible,nouiactivate" >

      

        
        
        
      

    

2) I am using the Visual FoxPro COM client. If (1) is not possible, then what can I do in VFP to activate the inactive ActiveX control. (I don't mind VB or C # input if I can use it to find the equivalent foxpro)

I have currently tried the following

this.AddObject('OleControl1', 'oleControl', 'SomeCompany.SomeOleControl')
this.OleControl1.AutoActivate = 3
this.OleControl1.Visible = .T.
this.OleControl1.SetFocus

      

        
        
        
      

    

But I get OleControl1 focus before dispatching events such as mouse clicks on its subelements. So I have to double click on it to perform the required actions, anytime it has no focus. I would like the control to behave as if the miscStatus "nouiactivate" is set.

3) Is there any other way to accomplish what I want to do?

Hans Passant, here is a list of the current Assembly.dll.manifest. The formatting in the comment made it unreadable.
