WEIRD ERROR

i am trying to add a toolbar to my program and it lets me but i have one problem. when i right click on the toolbar, and then i select properties i recieve the following error:
---------------------------------------------
Class not registered.
Looking for object with CLSID:
{7EBDAAE2-8120-11CF-899F-00AA00688B10}
---------------------------------------------

please help me, also i receive this error when using tabs and some other things. i have an idea what is causing it but i do not know what to do. the .OCX that i am using is "Microsoft Windows Common Controls 6.0" (5.0 is the same thing) and i get the same error for all the tools from that .OCX.

Maybe (and I hate to even mention it) you have to reinstall VB. Probably not though.

i have done so and no success. thanx for the idea though. also i dont think that that is ht problem because it does not happen with every object, only the tools added from the OCX that i previously mentioned. too bad it had to be that OCX cause it added some important things, such as the progressbar, toolbar, statusbar, tabs, and other common things that i use often. so please anyone reading this help me out!!

thanx ahead of time

Download the fix from this Microsoft Download Center. IT has the updated version of many controls, including Microsoft Windows Common Controls.

Hello guys,

I'm having the same problem and when I click on the links is not accessible anyone know where are these links to fix my Visual Basic?

[DataMiser]

The thread and the link is almost 14 years old. Not surprising that it no longer works.

Sounds like you need to register the OCX

[dilettante]

Manually registering items included as part of the VB6 development system is a little bizarre. if you find a need for this you probably have bigger problems with a corrupted OS (some virus, failing hard drive, some poorly written rogue program or InnoSetup'ed application).

Ideally you'd format your boot partition and start by reinstalling Windows. Barring that I suggest that you unstall VB6, then reinstall VB6 followed by VB/VS Service Pack 6.

... when I click on the links is not accessible anyone know where are these links to fix my Visual Basic?

Here are their new URLs:

PRB: Opening Property Page Results in "Class Not Registered"


Next time, don't dig up an old thread. Create a new one instead and link to it if necessary.

Nice work re new links.

But, as for this ...

Next time, don't dig up an old thread. Create a new one instead and link to it if necessary.

... IMHO, I think might want to rethink that.

I'd give Rengaaw credit for doing a search (so many don't). Plus, the age of the
OP gives some useful context to Rengaaw's issue.

Well, you do have a point.
