    Hey everyone. I'm having some trouble registering an OCX control since I reinstalled my system and replaced the motherboard. Every other OCX control I've registered has worked fine ... it's just a certain two.

    regsvr32 returns 0x8000ffff ... which I think is a null code. Any ideas?

    Try unregistering it first by using regsvr32 with the /u option.

    Returns the same error when I try to uninstall.

    Or even if anyone knows where I can find advanced technical information on how regsvr and type libraries and all that stuff works ... just point me in some direction.

    Thanks.

    OK ... nevermind. Stupid me. It was just that my msvbvm50.dll file was an older version than the OCX required.
