Hi all,

I'm using Access XP 2002. I'm trying to put the control Microsoft Flexgrid 6.0 onto a form. However, whenever I try this, I get the following error..."You don't have the license required to use this ActiveX control".
How can I fix this error so that I can use the Flexgrid control under Access? If this is not possible, could anyone recommend a control that works like an unbound grid control?

Any help would be useful, I've tried everything I can think of.....Office service packs, Windows service packs.....nothing works. :(

Thanks,

Jon.
 
The Flexgrid ActiveX control is included in Microsoft Office Developer version

 
Hi Jon,
Just wondering if you were able to solve this issue? I'm having the same exact problem. I have Office XP running on my machine, and all of the sudden can't use the FlexGrid control in any of my apps (including VS2003.NET!). I'm not sure what happened. I feel like maybe the library was replaced accidentally with another app or something. Let me know what you found out - I'm losing my mind!

 
Hi Shepherd,

No, I was not able to solve this issue...as far as I can tell, the problem happens 99% percent of the time. I was once able to get it to place a Flexigrid onto a form, but only that one time out of maybe twenty tries.
Its definitely a lisencing issue, probably to do with either one of the DLLs Office Developer 2002 puts on or something replaced by a VB runtime DLL.
No luck on Microsofts knowledge base either. In the end, we had to go with a third party grid control. Annoying.
