A client asked me to update an application we have been constantly updating for the last 10 years. What was MicroSoft thinking. A lot of my code and MicroSoft ActiveX controls don't work anymore. I used the Common Dialog, ImageList and TreeView controls (God help me what else). I had to download the ComCtl32.ocx and ComDlg32.ocx because they do not come with Windows 7. Now I am having no luck registering these items in the Windows/System32 folder. A couple of (online) recommendations suggested they should be placed in the \Windows\SysWow64 folder and then registered, My question is, on the clients older machines they will not have a SysWow64 folder. Any suggestions how I can register these files from the System32 folder???
