the first time i installed vb5 on my computer (a long time ago), vb wouldn't let me make a rich text box or a few other things like tabs because i dont have it registered, but after i reformatted my hard drive (a long time ago) i decided to re-install vb5 again today just to mess around with it.

now i can make a rich text box and tabs but now i cant make those meters or toolbar!! before i could have but now it tells me i dont have it registered or i dont have the liscense (something like that).

i have searched this site and i found some simple code that does exactly what i wanted, which was to register an ocx but it doesn't work!! it still wont let me make the meters or toolbars. so i searched somewhere else for some code and i found it again, it was very similar but still a little different so i gave that one a try too, but no luck!! so how can i get the liscense or registration for it cause i wanna use those meters!!

thanx ahead of time
