Registering OCX component

[Doug G]

I have to make a component out of a VB application that someone else wrote,
and I'm not too familiar with that world. The only complication that I see
is that there is a custom "Grid32.OCX" control that is part of the
application and I know that it has to be "registered" in some way in order
to work. What do I have to do in Component Builder to get the necessary
registry entries made?

Hi Doug,

One way from command line: regsvr32 grid32.ocx

Or read in product documentation about Resource option that you can add to your component called:
"FBA DLL/COM Registration"

IIRC, the grid32 ocx will also require OLE stuff in the image (ole32, oleaut32) and MFC.
Make sure to get all the activex control dependencies in place.
