    activeXcontrol fail to download

    Hi,
    I developed an activeX control that intended to use in web page by using vb,
    i tested it in another Pc which is clean in the sense that no vb installed.
    The first time, the control downloaded, installed and run well. After that,
    i add some properties into my control, then compiled and make it in cab
    file, but this time the control fail to download and run. I suspected there
    is different clsid for new and old control, the question is where can i
    clean the old clsid and make the new control download and run?

    Thanks in advance for the direction,

    Regards,
    Andrew

    If you kept it as an activex control on the web page, the client pc will pick it up & download it itself (providing the security settings of the browser allow it), this will create it's own classId & register it.

    To place the control on the page, you can use Microsoft's ActiveX Control Pad. - I wouldn't bother with the *.cab file idea
