In another moment of desperation I added this to the error() method of my screen:

IF oApp.Show_OLE_Errors = .F.
IF nError != 1440
DODEFAULT()
ENDIF
ELSE
DODEFAULT()
ENDIF

....that way I could see if I was getting an OLE error if I wanted (which I knew I would be)

This is what I see:
"OLE error code 0x80040154: Class not registered. OLE boject is being ignored."

...so between that, and seeing this in my Event Log after I run the activex installer...

"The description for Event ID ( 34401 ) in Source ( Crystal_regsvr32 ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: ."

...I'm convinced that the install simply isn't working somehow. Yet, I did go out and register the .dll's and the .ocx file manually - and that didnt produce any errors either.

Strange because the installer looks like it ran just fine.
