    It should come with your edition of VB.

    If not, google search.

    "Retrieve"?

    Do a search on your hard drive for MSWINSCK.OCX

    If you find it, and you should if you have VB installed on your machine, then you already have it.

    It's possible it's not registered

    if you find it on your hard drive try

    regsvr32.exe mswinsck.ocx

    You can register it in two different ways.

    The long way would be to do regsvr32....

    The easy way is to open a project, hit Project/Components...click Browse. Find the OCX, select it, and click OK.

    Not only will it be added to your project toolbar, it will also be registered for future use.

    If it isn't registered you cannot add it to your project.

    EXACTLY.

    You have to regsvr32 first.

    If you don't own VB though the license files won't exist.

    Thus compiled EXEs can use it but developers can't.

    Hopefully you put MSWINSCK.OCX in your system folder.

    If so, you can do:

    Start/Run/RegSvr32 "c:\windows\system\mswinsck.ocx"

    From what did you install the version of VB that you are running?

    Do you have SP5 installed?

    You don't need to locate RegSvr32.Exe...

    It will be in a folder that is defined in your "path"...
