There's an entry under the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT matching the Registered name (ProgID) of the control or server, which contains the CLSID of the server.

There's a separate entry under the CLSID referenced in the first entry that contains an immense mount of information about the server - where it lives, what types of servers are availble, etc.

>Also - sort of related question - what determines what available controls show up in my choice list when I add an OLE bound control to a form? Obviously this info isn't coming form registry since I've tried to use controls from the list that have proven to be unregistered (no license found) is it?
