Microsoft FlexGrid Control Version 6

Why DataGrid controls are not available in Access, Can I installed them.....

rockiroads,

thanks for your time, and help.

I try to register in dos mode and it failed, but when I looked in system32 folder, Msflxgrd.ocx is there.

so, what should be the next step to register it...

You must supply the entire path to the file:

regsvr32 "C:\Windows\System32\mdflxgrd.ocx"

you'll obviously have to change the path to match your own ...

LSMConsulting,

Thanks for your help, I put you in my favorite  "rescue" Folder, I will contact you if i came across the point where I can get your help. I do same sort of work what you do. It will be my pleasure to work with you.

Thanks again for your time, and I will look at your recommanded Grids.

regards,

regsvr32 msflxgrd.ocx like I said, just do it again in the windows system32 directory, like I said

you can specify fullpath or relative path, it doesnt matter

LSMConsulting,

It got registered sucessfully in dos mode, but still give me same message when i used in Access, I close the database and opened again, but got the same message. Do i need to reboot the computer... or there is any other problem.

Many thanks for your  help

try first uninstalling it

regsvr32 /u msflxgrd.ocx   (or the full path if not in system32 directory)

then try registering it again

regsvr32 msflxgrd.ocx



LSMConsulting, when u specify the name, does it not search in your path for that control? I was under the impression it did so, perhaps System32 is not in the path, it should be though

there is this, its to do with graphs but, in your case perhaps the control is not installed properly or something, I dont know

rockiroads,

i uninstalled and installed it, and now i get message, that i don't have liesnce. Thats fine, atleast I learn how to install a ocx control.

and yes, it works fine with out even path, because i am in same directory, I am good in DOS. I guess if current system path is reference to file, or you are in same directory, it won't impact.

thanks both for your help. can I split the points and accept rockiroads answer. because both were right, its just didn't happen on my side because of unknow reasons.

once again thanks.

rockiroads: I'm not sure how that logic is worked out by MS ... I've been able to successfully register a file that's in my path by just typing "regsvr32 filename.ocx" on some machines ... on others, I've had to type the full path (just setup my Windows 2003 Server w/ Terminal Server, and I had to type the full path to the .ocx files I needed to register, while the new dev machine I just bought with XP Pro on it doesn't require that) ... who knows <grin>, this is microsoft after all!!! FWIW, I've always been leery of registering the wrong file - for example, if a developer has installed "reallycoolcontrol.oxc" in a file that's in the path, and I want to register the same control in System32, I just wasn't confident that MY control would be registered ... thus, I always just fill in the entire path.

ExpertPro: Can you open and run the db othewise? There have been some issues with the DAO library being "de-registered", but I don't recall seeing that problem around around for a while ... and, are you SURE you have the rights to use this file? Even if it shows up on the list of ActiveX controls, this doesn't mean you can use it.

if u dont have a license, then thats probably the reason why its failing,
u must of got the reference added, but because of the license issue, you get the error
its only when uninstalling and installing manually, you've realised the problem

LSMConsulting, thanks for that, I suppose its good practice to put fullpaths then, but typically System32 stuff should be picked up, ah well, never mind
