>mmmmmm yep it works but it seems very longwinded to get a simple piece of information. There must be an API call that you can pass the name of an OCX to and it will return whether it is registered or not.
But an API call would do basically the same thing -- query the registry. ALl I do is check the registry when the app launches. It does not really take much time at all.
