Where to install OCX's

[Pete Vickers]

Any advice as to where I should install OCX's - in the %sysdir% or in program files\common files\pname directory

Hi,
You should read the knowledgebase article at: http://www.indigorose.com/kb/IRKB-SF5-000008.pdf for some general information.
OCX files are operating system components, and operating system components are traditionally installed to the WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory (%SysDir%). If your application does not need to share these files with other applications, it is best to install them to your application directory (%AppDir%) instead.
Look in the User's Guide under: "Where do I put the Files?" for information that deals specifically with OCX files.
