distribute ocx on network

[easyit]

Hi,

Is there a method to distribute OCX files on a network DB? Somehow it isn't registerd in the shared DB, but only on my PC, and I don't want to install it manually on each PC.

Anybody with an idea?

Hi,

This may not be the most elegant method. We did this by adding temporary commands to the logon script.

eg.

copy f:\ocx\Comdlg32.ocx c:\winnt\system32\Comdlg32.ocx

regsvr32 c:\winnt\system32\Comdlg32.ocx /s

this way the ocx was copied and registered when people next logged on.

As I say, there are probably better ways but this worked for us.



There are two ways to write error-free programs; only the third one works.

GHolden,

That should work, but I don't have acces to logon scripts. I've found a way though, using Microsoft Knowledge Base Article - 173091 (HOWTO: Programmatically Register and Unregister .OCX Files
) it works also.

Thanx anyway.
