Hi<br />
I had followed the steps of this article before.<br />
The error is ahead...

<div>
I am not sure in this case. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Can you distribute both 32-bit and 64-bit versions? &nbsp; I don't know if this will work, but a number of applications I use come both ways. &nbsp;Otherwise, I don't know.

<br />
Thanks for help!

Hi Experts<br />
<br />
Could you point how to workaround this mscomctl.ocx instalation on Win7?<br />
<br />
A customer laptop using Win7 64 bits couldn't install mscomctl.ocx &nbsp;with administrator privileges:<br />
<br />
C:\Windows\SysWOW64\REGSRV<wbr />32 mscomctl.ocx<br />
<br />
Since this error occurs:<br />
&nbsp;<a href="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2019/02_w08/1413150/img_EE_01_23022019.png" target="_blank" title="img001 (296 KB)"><img alt="img001" class="file-block lazyload" style="max-width: 520px;" data-src="https://filedb.experts-exchange.com/incoming/2019/02_w08/1413150/img_EE_01_23022019.png" /></a><br />
That means: maybe the module &quot;mscomctl.ocx&quot; doesn't be compatible with the Windows version you are using.<br />
Check if it is compatible with one version x86(32 bits) or x64(64bits) from file regsrv32.exe<br />
<br />
I had obtained the mscomctl.ocx from my own Win10 laptop and send it to the customer, maybe it's caused (or not) the bug.<br />
<br />
Amazingly when running Dependency walker on my own PC, where it's correctly running, &nbsp; the report is very extense... so I'm avoiding to ask the customer to do that, added the fact he will have some dificulties on this operation. I'm planning to send him a mscomctl.ocx that runs at a Win7 64bits - for another try...<br />
<br />
Do you know any workaround on this problem, like known .DLL(s) that must exist in conjunction?<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance!

Visual FoxPro (VFP), and its predecessor FoxPro, is a data-centric, object-oriented, procedural, database programming language and IDE from Microsoft last released in 2007 that still has some active use due to its low cost of deployment and fairly rapid development. In 2008, Microsoft released a set of add-ons for VFP's xBase components to allow interoperability with various Microsoft technologies. It allows data processing against its native file-based data tables or database servers such as SQL Server.
