>If the older Activex control version has a version Specific ProgID, an application can invoke it, right ? If yes, how do I do that bypassing invoking the latest one ?

you can't change what the compiled program asks for, it is built into the exe.

But-
I guess you could force the Generic ID to point at the old one by changing the registry CurVer value to the progID of the old control, but I don't think this is a good idea. This would give all clients that asked for the Generic ProgID the old version, when they really want the new one.
