[RESOLVED] Registered as apposed to Unregistered UCs

In terms of how an app runs I expect there is little to choose in either method if the uc is serving a single exe. However if the uc serves more than one exe then all dependent exes can be more easily be 'upgraded' (without changing/ reinstalling them) by installation of a new version of the uc's ocx.

Yep. Bottom line in my opinion: If it is to be used for a single application only, no need to make it an external ocx. However, if you plan on using it in future applications, make it external and by all means, enable binary compatibility for future revisions of the ocx
