registering ocx's

[bumpyride]

Hi group,
my setup fails to register some ocx's.
My test machine is a clean win95 (release B) install.
I am including VB6 runtime support module in my setup.
I am finding that OLEPRO32.dll is not being updated to the version in my setup.exe, yet I know that the version in win95 is older.
When I manually copy OLEPRO32.dll, register it, and then manually register my ocx's, this works.
I saw a post regarding non microsoft ocx's not being registered. I am having the same problem.
Can anyone help??

TIP: Re: registering ocx's

Just a note for the lesser known:

If anyone has problems registering dll or ocx files, here's an easy way to register/unregister the files in Windows 95, 98, NT/2000 and XP.

Copy/paste the REGEDIT4 text below into a noepad and save the file with a .reg extension. Then double-click this file to merge it with the registry (make a backup of your registery before altering it).

Then, by right-clicking on any .dll or .ocx file, the options to Register/Unregister should be available in the Explorer context menu.


REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\dllfile\shell\ Register DLL\Command]
@="RegSvr32.exe \"%1\""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\dllfile\shell\ Unregister DLL\Command]
@="RegSvr32.exe /u \"%1\""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ocxfile\shell\ Register OCX\Command]
@="RegSvr32.exe \"%1\""

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\ocxfile\shell\ UnRegister OCX\Command]
@="RegSvr32.exe /u \"%1\""
