Is this how the full error message looked like: "Error loading control. A newer version needed. The default settings for the control will be used"?
This error message is usually due to the DataSocket sever manager using the DataSocket ActiveX controls that have been saved as a previous version. That would happen if the server manager exe that you are using (i.e. version 6.0.2) is built with the controls shipped with the older version of the cwui.ocx (i.e. version 6.0)
You will need to install the newer cwui.ocx.
Please find attached the latest version (6.0.3) of cwui.ocx.
