What version of AX do you use? If AX2012, ManagedHost control + WinForms/WPF will be the easiest way.

You could use Window control WinGDI functions - see tutorial_Tetris form for example.

Another (and easier) option is to use an ActiveX control - if no existing ActiveX control is suitable, you can turn a Windows Forms control to ActiveX (see Exposing Windows Forms Controls as ActiveX controls).

In any way, it’s not completely trivial.
