I am using the community edition but am not aware of any limits in this regard.
I have imported mstscax.dll via Component |> Import Component… and selecting “ActiveX.” The component does not show up in in the component palette and editing the the DFM directly to include a TMsRdpClient[digit] component results in form builder errors stating the component can not be found.
However it is possible to get a premade project (RDPWrap’s RDPCheck) to build and run if those errors are “Cancelled” instead of “Ignored.” It is also necessary to resolve the error mentioned here.
In a project I have created myself I am able to add the generated file MSTSCLib_TLB to the uses clause and to add a variable of type TMsRdpClient7 to a form. In the FormCreate function (for example) I am able to call TMsRdpClient7.Create(Self) and then access the properties of the object. If I set enough properties (see below) I get the authorization popup and see the login screen after calling TMsRdpClient7.Connect.
with RDP do
begin
Left := 0;
Top := 0;
Width := Self.Width;
Height := Self.Height;
Parent := Self;
Visible := True;
DisconnectedText := 'Disconnected.'; UserName := ''; Server := '127.0.0.2';
end;
