Hi George.

>According to the KB article the Setup Wizard only creates a run-time license, but AddObject() (and presumably CreateObject()) require a design time license.

That's correct, and that's what FOX.REG contains. I use this technique all the time (in fact, I rarely use design-time ActiveX controls because of version issues, as I've bitched about before in numerous forums [g]) and it works just fine.
