Try setting the OCXs and your program compatibilities to a Windows version on which they operate.

Otherwise, if you cannot get this solved through the manufacture, or a support forum for the Sheridan controls, then for the time being you may need to resort to using something like the free MS Virtual PC and create an enviroment using an older MS operating system.

>Threed32.ocx

Is working fine here on Vista Utimate (retail), i'm using the SSPanel control in it.

VB6 SP6
Threed32.ocx File version 1.0.41.0 dated 23/06/1997 17:14 from disk 2 (I think) of the vs6 installation disks.

I'm not using the SSRibbon and I'm not quite sure what it does but a quick check just now was letting me place it on forms etc in the IDE. What problems are you getting?
