How to fix the IeFrame problem easy.

Hey everyone, First tut here.
Im thinking this is the wrong Board, but its the closest to my subject.

Anyway im here to show you how to fix the IEFrame problem for Vb 6.0
You know that little annoying MSGbox error that continues to show itself when you try and input the WebBrowser Control Component?
Ya you know :)

Im doing this because i have seen alot of post "Not just on this forum" that are asking this very problem to be fixed asap.

Here you go:

As you may know, for some reason VB 6.0 Searches for
C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieframe.dll\1

Now as you already know .dll is not a folder, But VB says "Or microsoft new version of IE7" says it is.

Anyway, To change the Component from searching for that, we need it to search for :

C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieframe.dll

So its the .DLL rather then a folder -.-
How do you do this? Follow these steps..

1 - Click Start.
2 - Click Run.
3 - Type "regedit"
4 - Click Edit then Find
5 - Type in the box "C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieframe.dll\1"
6 - Click "Search" or "OK" - (I really don't remember what the button says lol)
7 - Once its done searching, You should come up with 1 value.
8 - Click the value and you will see the above text in a textfield which you can edit freely.
9 - In the box replace "C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieframe.dll\1" with :
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\ieframe.dll"
10 - Click ok, Once you have done this, Exit out of the Regedit.

You are finished, Horayyyy.
Anyway, this is my first tutorial here, I am aware that it could potentially be in the wrong board, if so could you move it to the appropriate one.

Thank you, hope i fixed your problem.

Calling a .dll with a \1 means the first library will be accessed, if more libs are available in the same dll. Just like msvbvm60.dll have \1 and \3 that points to different libs.

Library VBRUN
C:\WINDOWS\system32\MSVBVM60.DLL\3
Visual Basic runtime objects and procedures

For example, VBRUN is a different library within the vb runtime dll, while VBA is the main library. You can access VBA by natively calling the msvbvm60.dll without the \3 library pointer.

Hey thanks alot man. I was just looking around and found this quick tut !! Great stuff. Just wanted to thank you. One day I was making a web browser and some how went to load the project again to do some more work to it and this problem started after I loaded the Microsoft Internet Controls. Thanks again everything back to normal. Now I can work on that web browser again !!!
