Why is the Ocx listed under tools but when you try to use it it says license required. Going to Microsofts web is like walking through a maze in the dark. Useless. Can you give me some direction. Is there a good third party Ocx that will allow me to write code to activate? As you see I am new at the ActiveX stuff. I just want the dialog to pop up on a form to locate a path/filename so I can transfer the info into a hyperlink field to activate the file when clicked. Maybe there is a better way ? Help . Thanks

I'm still trying to figure that out for a MSHFlexGrid Control. I know in the page code, under the controls "clsid" that you have to put a codebase attribute in it telling it where the control is located on the server and a version number will make it check and update when a newer version is available. I have it where it comes up on my test computer and ask if you would like to download and install the MSHFlexGrid control from MS. I click on yes and it acts like it's downloading. I can also see it in the registry, but it won't operate. From this I know it's downloading but I'm still unable to use it. I made a license for it from the license tool that comes with Visual Studio 6.0 and included the license number in the codebase but that didn't help either.
