I need to use the microsoft windows common controls-2 6.0 activex control (mscomct2.ocx) for the date-time picker control on my new XP Pro machine. The problem is, this control is not registered on the XP machine and I cannot use it in my CVI project. I created the
CVI project on another computer (win 98). On this computer, I had complete access to the activex control. I have tried the following on the XP machine:
I copied the .ocx file into system directory, ran regsvr32 c:\windows\system32. Didn't work, so unregistered the control with the /u command, uninstalled CVI, reinstalled everyting. Also didn't work. I believe that I need a licensed version of the .ocx file that I can only get from installing Office, VC++, etc. and th
is is unacceptable for my application. Anyone have any suggestions? Can I get a licensed version of the control without installing visual studio? Thanks.
