Hi!
It's specifics of many Mabry controls. They ships with two versions: ActiveX control (.OCX) and COM object (.DLL). The functionality of OCX is based on COM object. IMO using of COM object is better than of OCX. It's not so hard to write CREATEOBJECT() instead of dropping OCX on form.
Since setup wizard doesn't know about dependency on RASX.DLL, you should include it manually. Some installing packages like Wise Install Master can detect such dependencies. Wise Install Master fully supports FoxPro programs.

HTH,
Alexander

>in the past, i've included active-x controls, using the setup wizard, and they are registered correctly on the client's machine.
>recently started using the Mabry RASX control, and it seems that in addition to registering RASX.OCX , the .dll (RASX.DLL) _also_ needs to be registered. including the active-x control in the normal way (using setup wizard) not only does not register the DLL, but does not even include the DLL in the install.
>is there some way to get the DLL registered, other than manually including it and manually registering it ?
