Then you have to register it… at least, that's what I did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted March 26, 2014 Share Posted March 26, 2014 Make sure you install the run-time files properly. If you have a mscomctl.ocx in your game directory then unregister it and remove it. Then register mscomctl.ocx found at system32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbofile Posted March 26, 2014 Author Share Posted March 26, 2014 When i register the ocx's should i put it in system 32 or syswow64? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumbofile Posted March 27, 2014 Author Share Posted March 27, 2014 [attachment=1174:filenotfound.png]In the picture on the left you can see MSCOMCTL32.OCX in my System32 Folder. On the right is the same folder but opened by a OCX registering program. As you can see its not there. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Don't use an programs. Open up Command Prompt as an admin then type in the following:```regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx```Make sure that mscomctl.ocx is registered only system32 and de-register it's occurrence anywhere else.

Thor7 Posted September 16, 2014 Share Posted September 16, 2014 This is a quick fix and it has to do with the version of MSCOMCTL32.OCX being used by VB when you load the project.Right click on your visual basic project "client" and "Server" and open with notepad. Near the top about 6 lines down you should see:Object={831FDD16-0C5C-11D2-A9FC-0000F8754DA1}#2.1#0; MSCOMCTL.OCXEdit to:Object={831FDD16-0C5C-11D2-A9FC-0000F8754DA1}#2.0#0; MSCOMCTL.OCXChanging this part which I believe is the version:#2.1#0;to#2.0#0;Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
