Interactive Net Server v7.0.454.4 Lines: 75 Joe, 1. Remove the catalyst stuff by uninstalling if it still exists 2. Do a search on the file in question 3. If the file doesnt exist, attempt a re-install or 3. if the file does exist then attempt to register it with com by typing in at the command prompt regsvr32 cswsk32.ocx, this will register it with the com subsystem. 4. re-run if the file doesnt exist, does exist but isnt registered, or maybe its the wrong version then you will recieve an error such as this. (by version I dont mean the actual version of the ocx, but the version of the TypeLib info stored as a resource in the ocx) The file you are looking for is called an Active-X container or control. It contains a set of exposed "interfaces" that can be reached via com through an API called DLLGetClassObject. In order for it to work it needs neccessary information in the registry that describes its location among other things, this is done through a call to DLLRegisterServer which is called when you run regsvr32. Normally what happens when it is installed, the installer places this information in the registry, any number of things can cause this information not to be entered, like the installer, abnormal installation, and a variety of system malfunctions.. It really doesnt help to lay blame on anyone, this type of error can happen with MS Office, Adobe Photoshop or anything that is installed on a windows box. It doesnt happen frequently but it can still happen.. With a little patience someone here can get you up and running wrote in message news:1063283743.44.1063226750@winserver.com... > I downloaded the program and it didn't work... and I shouldn't have to > search the net for the fix...
