Object library not registered

[tharpa]

If I go to Project, Components, check the box for Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library, and then click OK, I get

Object library not registered

I register FM20.DLL, but I still get the same error.

Any thoughts?

This isn't really worth bothering with unless you are making MS Office add-in DLLs, which is really why it exists at all.

Those controls are not meant to be hosted on a VB6 Form or UserControl. There are warnings about doing this, and you can't legally deploy the library anyway.

But if I suspect your problem at hand is that you failed to register it properly.

Make sure you haven't placed it into a virtualized folder, then make sure that you don't register it in the virtualized HKLM and do that using the 32-bit regsvr32.dll (there are two on a 64-bit Windows machine).

So in other words just do what we've been doing since 2006.

Unicode capable controls is another reason why people use it. Still not a good idea, but changing it out could be painful.

Adding Microsoft Forms 2.0 Object Library was my attempt at resolving another error. Based on the responses above, it was not the correct solution.

The error I am trying to fix is:

Line 58: Class MSForms.ScrollBar of control vsc was not a loaded control class.
