Grid Control Help

[svagelis]

I select the Grid Control from the components menu to add it to my project (GRID32.OCX). When I m trying to put it to my form ( instanciate it) i get an error says :
Licence information for this component not found. You do not have an appropriate licence to use this functionality in the design environment'.
I m using VB 6 proffesional edition, and i m wordering doesnt it (grid contol) ships with VB6? I mean licenced.
Can you help?
Thanks

If the control is in your Components area I would assume it's registered. I know with some features of Visual Basic 6 Professional installed on a network you have to have Domain Admin privileges to use the feature. I'm assuming you are on a Windows network. Try another datagrid control by selecting Microsoft DataGrid Control 6.0. If you get the same error message, try getting someone with Domain Admin privileges to sign on to your computer and see if these components will run. Otherwise, try reinstalling Visual Basic on your computer.

Grid is the original VB grid. It was shipped with the professional toolkit for Visual Basic in 1991. It was present in VB5 but it is not installed with VB6. With VB6 the MSFlexGrid (or MSHFlexGrid) is a better choice. MSFlexGrid supports nearly all the properties, methods and events of Grid. At only twice the size, it has a greatly enhanced feature set.

Hi, I got this error before. the only way you can fix it is to find VBctrls.reg file in VB5/6 CD, for VS6 in disk 3.

Just double click it, you are done.

You should try VBC6.EXE

VBC6.EXE is a utility designed to fix License problems with ActiveX Controls that ship with Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0

You can download the tool from microsoft
