Kodak Controls not working Win2k Pro

[pdddms]

I have the Kodak Controls on my Win2k machine, however when i try and add the components in VB6 or by clicking the toolbox, i get an error loading, cannot find file. I cannot even manually install or uninstall the components. Has anyone come across this issue and how is it solved. My win2k is up on patches and i have the SP5 for VB6.

I had this happen to me when we upgraded to WindowsXP. I learned that the Kodak image control was once a part of the Windows operating system and Windows decided not to include it with the Win2000 kernel and instead include their own imaging control.

We ended up doing something similar to what Swartzblitz has prescribed to force the ocx into the kernel. Each subsequent pc build contained this modification.
