Hi Dore.

No VB5 on my machine. I can access all this stuff fine in the VFP environment. It is in my distributed app that I am having the problem. And I can't find anything to fix this! I'm getting ready for a nervous breakdown.

>By any chance have you installed the Microsoft Visual Basic Version 5 Control Creation Edition, especially an early beta of it?. When I did I had similar problems accessing controls in comctl32. It took a reinstall of VFP to clear up the problem. Then when I installed a later version of the VB5CCE there was no similar occurrance of the problem.

The only guess I can make is that a previous version of the control that was registered on the destination was not properly overwritten. On such PC's where I manually unregistered the existing control first I have not had any problems. I did come across a new group that contained 2 messages showing similar problems, but they had no solutions!
