Where are the VB Controls?

Whatever happened to the ImageEdit and ImageAnnotateTool controls in XP Pro? Where can I find these controls in order for my VB program to run in XP? By the way, it's still in VB6, not VB.NET. Thanks in advance
 
This may be way off the mark, but are you trying to use something that is not included with XP?

The following is from Lockergnome tips.

10th December 2001

Kodak did a wonderful job on their Imaging Application (which comes bundled with Windows 98 and Windows 2000). As I archived more and more black and white documents, I came to appreciate its power. Sadly, this utility does not exist in Windows XP. There's no KODAKIMG.EXE or KODAKPRV.EXE to be found! My heartfelt thanks goes out to Lockergnomaniac John Hunter, who found a solution for those of us who miss our dear old app. We agree that the new "Windows Picture and Fax Viewer" sucks. If you have a Windows 2000 CD, copy the following files from the disc: OCKODAK.DLL, OIENG400.DLL, OIPRT400.DLL, OISLB400.DLL, OISSQ400.DLL, OITWA400.DLL, OIUI400.DLL, IMGCMN.DLL, IMGADMIN.OCX, IMGEDIT.OCX, IMGSCAN.OCX, and IMGTHUMB.OCX. Note that these files may still be compressed in the "**_" format.

You will need to use either the EXPAND.EXE utility or WinZip to uncompress them. If you have a Windows 98 CD, copy those same files PLUS the following: OIADM400.DLL, OICOM400.DLL, OIDIS400.DLL, OIFIL400.DLL, OIGFS400.DLL, IMGSHL.DLL, and IMGOCXD.HLP. In both cases, you should place all of them inside your System32 folder. Now, it's time to register the OCX files. Tap Winkey+R to launch the Run applet and then enter: "regsvr32 imgadmin.ocx" (sans quotes). Do the same for imgedit.ocx, imgscan.ocx, and imgthumb.ocx. Remember, to unregister an ActiveX control, you only need to trail regsvr32 with the "/u" switch. Be sure you've copied over the aforementioned executables to your System32 folder. They should work now! NOTE: You may need to launch the Kodak program to see if there are any other files missing from this procedure.
