ActiveX Control Error License

[cparralesl]

Hello guys,

I'm having this error message when insert a DBGRID in my form. I found an article about it, but this is not useful because i install my operating system and VB6 twice and it is not working yet.

The article says":

You are not a licensed user of the ActiveX control. This error has the following cause and solution:

You tried to place an ActiveX control on a form at design time or tried to add a form to a project with an ActiveX control on it, but the associated information in the registry could not be found.
The information in the registry may have been deleted or become corrupted. Reinstall the ActiveX control or contact the control vendor.


My question is how can i correct this?
If i have to do what the article says, How do I reinstall this ActiveX because this is installed by VB6?

I will appreciate your help.

Mr.Programmer:
=========================================
Download the 43 *.msm file's or try only
Your's file : msdatgrd.msm (for data grid )
=========================================
Past to:
D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools\VSInst\BuildRes

then do some repect to OS and restart your pc.
Maybe solved!.

I'm a kinda rookie in VB6. So, sorry if i do not understand what you are trying to say with:

=========================================
Download the 43 *.msm file's or try only
Your's file : msdatgrd.msm (for data grid )
=========================================



Beside, the last two directories in the path you say, is not in my machine.
D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\Tools\VSInst\BuildRes


Thanks

First check if you have Service Pack 5 installed (Help|About will tell you).
If not, download it and install:

You may also need to re-install VB
