Hi Tore.
>>When the form containing the new controls tries to open, you get the Windows 'OLE not registered' error. What I'd like to do is trap that error, and then prompt the user to run the installer. That way the issue remains peculiar to that machine, not the user. How can I do that?
>>Thanks.

That only works if the control is instantiated programmatically as opposed to be dropped on the form.
