This is probably a very simple question, but it has had me stumped this morning. I am trying to add an Rich Text ActiveX control to a web page and am having problems. When I add the control to the page in Visual Interdev, I get an error that it can not be displayed and will be shown as text. Not a problem. When I go to view the web page, I get nothing but the outline of where the object should be. This is all on my development machine. When I go to the server and pull up the page, the control comes up just fine. If I go to any other machine on the network...I get nothing, but I do get it on the server. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

If u have build the control urself then package it in a cab file so that when it is downloaded on any other machine controll is also installed and run on it.

yes the above answer is right ... take care of control's class id in ur ASP / HTML code that matters .. if the control with that class id is already there on system it will come fast o/w it will install it their.. and that ocx should be in that CAB file and that CAB file codebase should be in HTML/ASP file and while making CAB bundle all dependent file in it like VB run time DLL etc. otherwise it wont work ... where there not VB or VID is installed ..
