Ramesh,

Your version is older than the one dated 3/9/2004 (version # 6.1.97.82). I don’t know the differences.

@Ramesh in Vista running the Admin command prompt did the trick thanks a lot!
@Chris To run the command prompt with admin rights in vista just Type command prompt in the search bar in the start menu then right click on command prompt and select “Run as Administrator”

I, too, have had this problem in Vista, and I have attempted to solve this using the regsvr32.exe command in the Command Prompt program, however, I still get the same message as Ross received, where the problem hasn’t been solved.

Is there any other ideas to try to solve this?

Thanks ^_^

Mention which OS you’re using, Ross. If using Vista, make sure that you run the command from an Admin Command Prompt.

Hi I really appreciate the Information. I tried to run the “regsvr32.exe %systemroot%\system32\RICHTX32.OCX” command but I get the following error. “The module “c:\windows\system32\richtx32.ocx” was loaded but the call to dllregisterserver failed with error code 0×8002801c.” Any Ideas about what I can try?
Thanks

We have an old vb application that was giving this error message for some of us on newer machines. (odd, since it had been working and all of a sudden stopped.) We followed the steps above and now it works.

Thanks!
