BUG: License Not Included with ActiveX Control Distribution (190476)


The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual Basic Professional Edition for Windows 6.0
  • Microsoft Visual Basic Enterprise Edition for Windows 6.0
This article was previously published under Q190476

SYMPTOMS

The Visual Basic Package and Deployment Wizard (PDW) does not automatically include or prompt the user about whether an ActiveX control's License should be included in a distribution set.

RESOLUTION

If the License for an ActiveX control developed in Visual Basic is to be included in a distribution set, the License must be added manually through the Package and Deployment Wizard. The appropriate VBL file must be included in the distribution and the setup needs to know to register the VBL file on the target machine.
