vbAccelerator control vbalDTab6.ocx kiln <kiln[ at ]brick-like.com> 04.12.2005 01:31:47 vbalDTab6.ocx is a tab control from vbAccelerator. I registered it but it does not appear in the list of ActiveX controls (at least that I can recognize). Is there anything special that has to be done before these can be used? Like, does the vb6 runtime need to be installed? I'm not sure if it is on my system.

Re: vbAccelerator control vbalDTab6.ocx "Douglas J. Steele" <NOSPAM_djsteele[ at ]NOSPAM_canada.com> 04.12.2005 01:53:27 Are you hoping to use the control in Access? It's entirely possible that it will not work, as Access is far "pickier" about the COM interfaces with which it will and won't work. See http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=202104 for details (while the article only mentions Access 2000, it holds for all versions) If you're not using Access, then you've posted to the wrong place. This newsgroup is for questions about using ActiveX controls with Access, the database product that's part of Office Professional. You'd be better off asking in one of the microsoft.public.vb.controls groups. -- Doug Steele, Microsoft Access MVP http://I.Am/DougSteele (no e-mails, please!)

Some of these vbAccelerator controls must be good with Access as Alex D points people to them once in a while. They all seem to be built with vb6, and I was wondering if the runtime for that was needed in order for them to work, as a possible reason that I didn't see the control listed. Alex may chime in at some point.
