Hi
I have an activeX control and made cab file out of it to distribute it through the web. everything is working fine but if i make any changes to the control and implement a new cab file with the same name..the change is not being reflected on the client machine. that is the version is not updated.
How to automatically make the activeX control take charge of updating the client system???

You need to update the version information in the .INF file in your cab and in the HTML code referring to the cab file. Internet Explorer checks the version number against what it downloaded last. If they are the same, it wont download another one.

how do we update the version information in the .INF file in our cab and in the HTML code? do we have to do it manually opening the file or is there any other way such that when we develop a cab file it automatically generates the new cab with new version?
Thanx in advance

Sorry havent checked this forum lately.
You need to manually open the INF file and edit it. Also you need to make sure you increment the version on your OCX file each new revision.
