ya I'd actually tried that...and it does fix THAT problem...but then once the form with the activex has been run, when you try to exit the application I get a message saying "Please exit the current form before exiting application"...and of course there are no open forms...
Lesser of 2 evils, and givin the choice I'd obviously rather have this problem than the other...heh..but no problems would be ideal..heh... You seen that problem before?

>>This is kiinda a weird problem for us too. I personally did not start getting this until I went from vmp4 to vmp5 a few days ago....but now we have 1 machine that gets the error w/vmp4, and one that does not get the error w/vmp4, and of couse I have the error w/vmp5...so needless to say we're rather confused..heh....plus suposed to deliver source code to client Friday so now I've entered the 'panic mode'..arrrhhh!
