Win 95, VB 6.0.
I have a project which contained a form with a TreeView control.  Everything
was working fine until the last couple of days.  I'm not sure what I did,
but now when I open the project I get an error message saying that the
control was not registered (sorry, I can't remember the exact message).  I
tried to start over by removing the control and adding a new one but now the
control is not shown in the Toolbox.  I tried to re-add the component but am
now getting the message:
"name conflicts with an existing module, project, or object library."  Does
anyone know what happened or how to fix this?  I don't have any user-defined
modules with the same name but if comctl32.ocx is already registered, why
can't I see any of the controls on my Toolbox?  If it is not registered, why
can't I add the controls?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

comctl32.ocx has been superseded in Vb6.

Upgrade ActiveX Controls" does not do the Windows Common Controls.
Explanation and instructions to do it manually are in KB article Q190952.

MS have made a small application available to do it automatically. It is
called ProjUpgd.EXE (157,288 bytes but only about 41k when installed) It
isavailable for download from
