[OCX problem] - Failed to import the ActiveX control Visual Studio

[bryan1207]

I'm using Visual Studio and SAGE 2020. In previous version of SAGE 2019. I can used the .ocx and installed it successfully. But after upgrading, I cannot use it anymore.

When I dragged the Item from ToolBox:

I even tried to manually register the .ocx file

Is there any thing that I missed? Or need to be done?

Btw, when I tried to rebuild the solutions, below is the error:

C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\Microsoft.Common.targets(2015,5): warning MSB3283: Cannot find wrapper assembly for type library "AxAccpacOE1100". Verify that (1) the COM component is registered correctly and (2) your target platform is the same as the bitness of the COM component. For example, if the COM component is 32-bit, your target platform must not be 64-bit.

Installing Sage would have caused it to run regacc.

Maybe try running VS as Administrator?

I'm already running my VS as Administrator. Till now it is not working. Spent 3 days already for this error.

Are you able to create a new project with the other sub components of the OE screen? Meaning - an Accpac data source, field edit control, etc? I'm wondering if there is an underlying issue affecting the OE screen.

I ended up converting the .NET to VB6.

I'm not sure where the issue is but I had the same problem when trying to bring the .ocx controls into Delphi to do customizations. Other people had success but the error messages that I was seeing was very similar to what you were seeing. I dropped back to VB6 and didn't look back - until Orchid's Extender came along.
