Dear Forum members,

I had installed Visual Studio 6.0 and .Net in my PC. I created an
activex control using Visual Studio 6.0 and tried to register it using
Activex Control Test Container. It gave no error messages, but I
was unable to get it come up in the "Insert New Control" list.
I reinstalled Visual Studio 6.0 and it worked !!!

There may be some clients who would have installed Visual Studio 6.0 and .Net in the PC. The registration shouldnt fail in this
case. Please guide me how to solve this problem.

more info -
using regsvr32 for registering the activex gave the following message box :
LoadLibrary("<pathname>\MyActivex.ocx") failed - The specified module could not be found.

It appears that you answered your own question. Regsvr32 FAILED, therefore the control was not registered.

I have V6 and .Net installed on a number of machines here and have not run into any problems (other than the "wrong" environment opening when I double click on a cpp file without thinking....)
