debug assertion failed

Use your debugger to see where your program crashes. And if you want more chances to get an answer you have to provide a lot more informations (but still, use your debugger and if you are stuck, THEN post informations that comes from your debugger).

Are you calling AfxEnableOleAutomation() or CoInitialize() in your InitInstance function? Usually you get those types of assertions when you haven't initialized COM.

how can i initialize COM? and what's the declaration for these two functions?

By using one of the two functions that Zac mentioned.

This is about the time where I would tell him to take his hands off the keyboard, go to Barnes and Noble, buy any Intro to C++ book and any Intro to COM book ... and not to touch the keyboard again until both have been read and understood ... *sigh*

Be sure to include directions.

program fails cause in ASSERT(m_pCtrlSite != NULL); "m_pCtrlSite" not an OLE control ?? will these two functions solve it and if so what's the directions or classes of them plz?

Very doubtful. Had you failed to initialize COM, the application would have most likely failed to even start. I created a dialog-based project and added the Microsoft FlexGrid v6 Control to it. I then added the control to the dialog template. At this point, I could compile and run the application fine. What else do you have in place?

It would have started, but as soon as any access to the control was made, it would have given an assertion (in debug) or just crashed (in release).

True, in a sense.

Neither of which happened. It just went away quietly.
