Problem Using Visual Basic with Windows 2000

[Bachenot]

I recently replaced Windows 98 with Windows 2000 on my computer.<br><br>When I try to run a VB program with an Active X component,<br>I get the following Visual Basic error message:<br><br>System Error &H80004015(-2147467243). The class is configured to run as a security id different from the caller.<br><br>It appears that I need to configure Windows 2000 security in a different way.<br><br>Has anyone a solution to this problem?

Was the component registered correctly ?? <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= > </a><br>

I looked more closely and found that all Visual Basic programs with ActiveX DLL's give me this error. For example, the Visual Basic project associated with the article entitled --Get Accurate Results with Code-Based Timers-- in the April 2000 issue of VBPJ gives me this result because this project has an ActiveX DLL.<br><br>I believe that the solution is to find a way for myself --as the sole user-- to be able to use these ActiveX DLL's using Windows 2000.

I don't have Windows 2000, but this looks like a problem I've seen in NT4.0.&nbsp;&nbsp;Try this:<br>run dcomcnfg.exe<br>find the ActiveX DLL in the list (use the name, not the GUID)<br>click&nbsp;&nbsp;the properties button, and change the settings for launching to the interactive user.<br><br> <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto:nick@bulka.com>nick@bulka.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

It wouldnt hurt to dual-boot between win98 and win2k, unless you have a really small harddrive.<br>(just a tiny tip for the OS aspect of it) <p>Karl<br><a href=mailto:kb244@kb244.8m.com>kb244@kb244.8m.com</a><br><a href=
