I, like many of you, have been holding on to VB6. I have a Win7 environment with MSCOMCTL.ocx in the System32 directory and a Windows 8.1 machine with MSCOMCTL.ocx in the sysWOW directory. Both machines have VB6 installed and working well. The dependency works fine when a project is started and loaded in each environment. (listview control)
An visual basic project started (and working fine) on the Win7 machine refuses to open on the 8.1 machine, it stalls on the MSCOMCTL.ocx dependency. I have tried registering using regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx, but 8.1 isn't having any of that.
Is there something I can change in the vbp file to make this work?
