Missing Reference?? 'MSCOMCT2.OCX' version 2.0"

[Gracce]

I am testing a database that seems to work fine on my
computer but for some reason does not work on anyone elses
machine.

The database contains a few modules of code that work fine
(like I said) on my machine.

When someone (other than me!) launches the database, the
immediately get the following error:

"Your Microsoft Access database or project contains a
missing or broken reference 'MSCOMCT2.OCX' version 2.0"

The help on the error messages prompt you to open a module
and select Tool>References. When I do this on somone
else's machine, they get an "missing" next to Microsoft
Windows Common Controls-2.6.0.(SP4).

This does not allow them to run any of the import data
modules and also messes up a date field in a form.

Does anyone have any idea how to resolve this problem?

thank you,
Grace

OCXs need to be registered on each user's machine. Assuming that the file
exists on the machine, you should be able to use regsvr32.exe to register
it. If you're not familiar with that utility, check

'MSCOMCT2.OCX' version 2.0" Missing

I have the same issue and when I searched for the MSCOMCT2.OCX file I was not able to locate it on the working or non working macine.

I have downloaded and unzipped the regsv32a.exe file from microsoft and understand I need to run the file regsv32.exe with the MSCOMCT2.OCX but wasn't able to locate the .OCX file

any input appreciated ?
