redistribute mdivwctl.dll supplied with Office 2003

Hi,  one of my applications uses mdivwctl.dll (OCR) and I cant seem to find any information online wether I can re-distribute this file, or if my customers will need Office 2003. Cheers

Hello bhermer,

yes, they need office for that to work and you can't distribute the dll without an office client license

if you need to use ocr in your then you need an alternative like this.net component

hope this helps a bit

Hi bruintje,

thanks for teh help, but that link doesn't seem to contain OCR information, scanning isn't a problem I have obtained an ActiveX component for that, it is the OCR element I am looking for! If you know of any? I will leave the questoin open until you reply, but you will get the points! Can you please confirm that they will need 2003 or will any office suite work?
