Hi!

For using an Access application, I need to register the MS Windows Common
Controls (mscomct2.ocx) in Vista. I copied the ocx file to system32 and tried
to register it using regsvr32.exe, but an error occured which said that Vsta
couldn't find an DllRegistryServer entry point. The VB runtime could be
registered without any issues.

Do you know how I can persuade Vista to accept the ocx registration?

Thank you in advance!
 
Hi,

Have you tried doing it from an elevated command prompt? Click start, type
cmd and right click the entry in the menu, use "run as administrator". Then
run regsvr32 from the prompt.

I guess you are using vista x64? you can't register x32 bit dlls in system32
folder, they go into the wow64 folder.
