I've had a program I've been distributing for almost a year
now, and recently people have been having problems with OCX's not
registering (COMDLG32 & SPIN32), "Invalid Runtime License", and now
some are having "running (runtime?) error, quiting" when they launch
the program. I've only gotten about half a dozen reports, but I would
like to try to clear these up and the MS KB hasn't been of much use.
Does this have something to with VB5 & Office 97? I know that
when I put Word 97 on my VB4 programs worked fine but the
development-environment died until I restored by /system directory
from backup.
At least two people cleared up their problems by removing the
.OCX's and the VB40032.DLL and reinstalling the program, but I don't
want to recommend this without knowing what will happen to their
systems.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
PS: I've also had problems where my program will work fine
with the older VB40016 that comes with VB4, but will not run at all
with the newest versions.
