Now that I have this OCX, how do I install it so I can see the ActiveX controls on the tools menu and utilize it in my application development. I placed it in windows/system sub-dir (win95) with the rest of the OCX files but I can't see it in VFP in the activex controls section. Can someone give simple instructions on installing an imported OCX so it can be used by VFP.

Yes to me too. But to be sure try to copy to another dir in explorer.
