Hi :-)))
This was the first thing I have tried. I have tried to register it, then unregister and reregister. I think I have tried all methods published in MSDN and in the internet to register this ocx. It simply refuses to work which I don't understand at all.
The next step which I'm going to do is to compare the registry settings line by line on a computer which works and which doesn't.
Thanks,
Eryk
