    No offense to you youngsters... I'm looking for someone or people who have scars from activeX development. Yes, I know it's obsolete, but unknown to most of you the world runs on existing code. Rather than pollute the forum, you can find me at cgilley2640@gmail.com. This is a cash opportunity - I'm stuck. Email me and I'll give you the particulars.

      Why is this in the C/C++ forum rather than Collaboration / Beta Testing Discussion Boards[^] ?

        Because it's all written in C++? :) I'll move it. Also, I did not realize the discussion board list had multiple levels. Just learned something new.

          happily, after dancing with this for many years, I have resolved my bug. As in most cases, it was a series of cascading failures, but ultimately, it came down to an arcane threading issue in COM. Of course, the error message was "failed to load control, is it properly registered?" which had nothing to do with the real problem. Happy to have this monkey off my back.
