Question : VB6 application failed at MS Vista Help Please
|
|
My VB6 application is failed to run at Windows Vista. It says some problem with RICHTX32.OCX I downloaded this RICHTX32 from the following address: http://www.ocxdump.com/download-ocx-files_new.php/ocxfiles/R/RICHTX32.OCX/6.01.9782/download.html
I registered this OCX using regsvr32 and it was successful Now, should I replace the existing RICHTX32.OCX at C:\Windows\System32 with this one while using the Package & Deploy tool, or before compiling the program ?
Do you have any other idea that will overcome the problem related with VISTA so that the application will run under vista too ?
I ma compling my application at Windows XP SP2
Thanks in advance.

Good idea. :)
Just run the .exe file - it defaults it's installation path to \Windows\System32 What I usually do is change that path to \Windows\System to avoid overwriting files (just in case of a version conflict). It's also a great idea to create a System Restore point prior to this too.
This app is a little like installing VB6 on the machine - it's full of common .ocx and .dll files which will allow the computer to run a lot more VB apps. Simply run this program on a pc that has a fairly-new Windows Installation on it (ie - not filled up with junk yet)
