There are updated components for the MSCOMCTL.OCX for redistribution if you do not have the current servcie pack at
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads/updates.asp - the details read:
Visual FoxPro 6.0 ActiveX Control Updater
Visual FoxPro ships with several commonly used ActiveX controls. These controls have in the past been stored in the file ComCtl32.ocx. In Visual FoxPro 6.0 these controls have been upgraded and are now stored in the file MSComCtl.ocx. Visual FoxPro 6.0 still ships with both files, so you can continue to use the older versions. However, you may want to upgrade your forms and classes to take advantage of new/enhanced features in the latest versions of these controls. This utility makes it easy to do this and will automatically update Treeview, Listview and Imagelist controls to the latest versions. For installation instructions and details on issues addressed, consult the the FoxPro 6.0 ActiveX Control Updater readme.
