Microsoft Activex Controls

[Gunjan Mishra]

Hi All,

We are using Microsoft Forms 2.0 CommandButton and Microsoft Forms 2.0

TextBox in our application which is being developed in VC++. But, when we

try to run this application on a PC that does not have FM20.dll registered,

the aplication does not run. I want to know if we can distribute FM20.dll

with our application and if not then what are the options. Also, which

Microsoft applications include FM20.dll as part of their installation setup.

In anticipation of a reply,

Thanks and regards,

Gunjan

I can't imagine why this is in a VB group but anyway, No... you can't distribute fm20.

If you use and distribute it anyway, below is what the end user will see...

Enter fm20.dll (or any other MS filename) in the box provided on this page. It'll tell you
where it comes from.
