>Just wondering if any one know if there is a way to determine the version# of an activeX control programatically in VFP. i.e. I want to find out the version# of the calendar control at run time...

If you want your app to look in the registry it should be under HKET_CLASSES_ROOT\(ocxname)+'.'+(component)

You'll have to do some digging but I think its in there.

Doug Hennig wrote a cool artice in FoxTalk a while ago about how to avoid conflicting versions by adding them at runtime, because ActiveX are 'forward, but not backward compatible'.
