[archive] ActiveX Error Message

[Migrated content. Thread originally posted on 26 January 2009]

Hello
I am trying to run a program with an activex progress bar and I get the following message: Error Creating ActiveX Control.
Is this a licensing problem? How do I fix it?

Thanks

It *may* be a licensing problem, but likely not. I might be as simple as the control not being registered with the host machine.
I suggest you code a declaratives in your program to capture the error condition, that should give you a clue.
I am pretty sure I have posted an example or two on the forum once, on how to program a declaratives for com exceptions, but if you can't find it, let me know and I can post it again.
