    ocx control for access

    Hi,

    I've written an Active-X component. This OCX is designed for use in an access(XP) database. When I compile everything goes fine.
    When I want to add the ocx to my toolbox, I click register, select my ocx. After this, my ocx should appear in the list, but it doesn't. If I try it with a new vb6 project, the ocx works fine. What might be causing this problem?

    Thanks

    Re: ocx control for access

    The ocx consists of a number of items:

    - a couple of textboxes
    - a listbox
    - a checkbox
    - a richtextbox
    - a button
    - a listview

    and a dll to be able to modify the subitems in the listview.

    The ocx is registering the remarks on a project
    every remark can contain multiple action-points. These action-points are listed in the listview.

    What I want to do is create an access-form with the ocx. When loading the form I'll query the DB and fill it with the proper remarks and (if available) the action-points.

    The thing is that I'm not able to register the ocx properly in access, so it doesn't show up in my activeX control toolbox.

    When I register it by hand and use it in a new vb6 project it runs fine.

    If needed I can provide you the code.
