Alex,

I've tried that but it doesn't work for the Common Control OCX as far as I can tell. At least not in runtime applications.

I wonder what exactly needs to go into the manifest file especially in this section:

<assemblyIdentity
    version="7.0.0.0"
    processorArchitecture="X86"
    name="Microsoft.VisualFoxPro"
    type="win32"
/>

What would you put there for a custom application? I'm guessing that for Win32 apps, it doesn't matter.

IAC, it doesn't work for the MSCOMCTL.OCX file...
