Hi,
I am trying to use an ocx control in one of my forms. The ocx control is registered and is being used successfully in another application. However I cannot add the control as a component of my toolbox.
When I try to select it as a component, it gives me an error "Name conflicts with existing module, project or object library". There is not module or project by the same name. I am unable to figure out why this is happening. Please help.

Pretend:
In the object library(ies) you currently reference there is an object called Widget. In the OCX your are trying to add there is another object called Widget.
This is an object library reference naming conflict. This is most likely what your problem is.
The only way around this is to use late binding
Code:Dim obj1 as object
Dim obj2 as new object
Set obj1 = CreateObject("library1.widget")
Set obj2 = CreateOBject("library2.widget")
Just rename the method that is causing the roblem.
Sounds like the control you are trying to load has either a method or a sub/function inside a module tht is the same name as one already in the project.
Is it not highlighting where the error is occuring?
If its your OCX then just open it and check the names... else change the name in your project.
Shouldnt be to hard ot find the problem.
