Hi Matt,

The original test program provided with the activex control works fine with both
WinXP Pro SP2 and SP3 on my machine, and as expected the author confirmed the same.
At present I am back to WinXP Pro SP2 with latest updates (almost all).

I used com_err_out(1) and got the following display:

CoCreateInstance Error: 80040154
80040154: Unknown error
CoCreateInstance Error: 80040112
80040112: Unknown error

When I tried to register it again, I got:

CoCreateInstance Error: 80040112
80040112: Unknown error
CoCreateInstance Error: 80040112
80040112: Unknown error

I have this EMSA Register Dll Tool from the web, which displays the current
registration status (Yes/No) of specified Dll/Ocx file and allows to register/unregister
the same. I tried registering/unregistering my control with this utility and it
worked fine. Using this utility, I unregistered my ocx.
The registration status was set to "No".
And then executed my program.

My program got aborted with return code 0 (zero).
I went back to EMSA utility, and found that the ocx was in fact had got registered.
The registration status was "Yes".
But somehow the EuCOM return code is always coming back as zero.

Also, even after externally registering the ocx, the procedure mentioned
in the first post does not detect the existing registration and tries to register
the same ocx, giving the zero return code.

Because now I have a reinstalled WinXP, may be it is some missing windows
file which EuCOM requires? Can you please list the windows files that EuCOM
requires to run properly?

Thanks & Regards,
Rad.
