Jean-Paul,
So you have Windows 7 32 bit? then I would try the System32 directory as as the sysWOW64 is only available on the windows 7 64 bit machines. -- Gina Whipp 2010 Microsoft MVP (Access) "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "Jean-Paul" wrote in message ...

I placed the new OCX file in System32
the call to DllRegisterServer failed with error code 0x8002801c. I looked it up but this is all far too complicated for me... I downloaded Process Monitor and ran it but don't know what to do with the information Hope you can help JP Gina Whipp wrote: Jean-Paul, So you have Windows 7 32 bit? then I would try the System32 directory as as the sysWOW64 is only available on the windows 7 64 bit machines. |

Jean-Paul,
Okay, well since those ideas didn't work let's start from the beginning... 1. Access version 2. Are you loading a Runtime or Full Install #. UAC Off or On? I will say this is one of the reason I have stayed away from .OCX controls... -- Gina Whipp 2010 Microsoft MVP (Access) "I feel I have been denied critical, need to know, information!" - Tremors II http://www.regina-whipp.com/index_files/TipList.htm "Jean-Paul" wrote in message ...

See the Calendar Tips page at my website http://www.granite.ab.ca/access/calendars.htm There could, likely will, be lots of version problems when you go to distribute the MSCal.OCX.. One alternative is MonthCalendar is a completely API generated Month Calendar derived directly from the Common Control DLL. There are links to several downloadable calendar forms at my website. As these are forms you can also do anything with them you want. You can also use the calendar form which comes in the Access insert your version here Developers Handbook by Litwin/Getz/Gilbert, publisher Sybex www.developershandbook.com. These books are well worth spending money. Every time I open one I save the price of the book. Duane Hookum has an awesome and simple calendar in a report. See the Calendar Reports sample section at http://www.access.hookom.net/Samples.htm As far as MSCOMCT2.OCX goes I don't know what you are using it for but if you tell us maybe we can give you some suggestions.
