Try looking for any OCX files and see if theyt are on your machine. Its a bit of a trawl but the obvious things to look for are things other than comctl32.ocx which is a standard OCX file. You really need to check each file/OCX in the list and see if the correspondinf file is actually on the machine. If you are on NT these will most likely reside in Winnt\System32, or if on Win98 they will be somewhere under your Windows directory. Mial me at <A HREF="mailto:culshaja@hotmail.com">culshaja@hotmail.com</A> with a list of all the checked files in your list if you want and I may be able to see some possible culprits for you to look for. By the way, have you any of the Visual Studio, or Delphi products on your machine, or were they on the machine the database was developed on?
