"MISSING:Microsoft Common Dialog Control"

Hey all!!

I am having a problem with one of my apps. I try to fire up and then gets hung up and tells me that "Can't find project or library". So the help tells me to go to the reference dialog and there is a "MISSING" in front of the Microsoft Common Dialog Control 6.0.

Anyone know how to get this back on its feet?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

John

 

Yeah, search the ng and use one of the alternatives. You cannot use the
Microsoft Common Dialog Control 6.0 per your Microsoft EULA.

Thanks for the reply.

I better step back and clarify somethings...sorry.

I previously had this program working just fine. Actually other machines in our department can still run it just fine. So I am not sure what happened to my machine. They did change me from one domain to another.

I have the code on the server so we are all accessing it from one location.

 

It doesn't matter whether it works or not, you cannot legally use the
control in a project. Search for "Re: common dialog control" I just posted
code, again, for users such as yourself so you can get away from the
control.

The missing control gets installed when you install a development
environment, such as Visual Basic or Visual Studio. It is illegal to copy
the control to other machines that do not have VB or VS. I doubt all the
machines have it installed, so they were working illegally. If you had it
working, you still need to switch to a legally distributable control. The
control is only distributable by a developer with a license, and then its
distributed as compiled in an exe or dll. Also, you don't need a control.
You can use the win api. If you search this ng, you will find a class module
that you can insert in your dvb that will give you the functionality of the
common dialog control. Then you don't need to worry if it will work on only
some machines because everything is in your dvb.
