You keep saying "OCX", but that's a term that's falling out of use, along with ActiveX. Yes, you can wrap, or expose, the functionality of a .NET control, through COM so other apps can still use the control. Though, to do so, you'd need to...

Hard to explain: the file is missing. You need to create it. Like explained in stackoverflow or with some others tools like the IDL compiler. 32-bit or 64-bit are build platforms so there are different build scripts. Maybe you need to copy some 32-bit build settings to the 64-bit build settings.
