I am using a registered version of Access 97 and I am unable to use ActiveX 

controls.

I am trying to use Comdlg32.ocx and it comes up with a message "you don't 

have the 

license to use  this control",



Is this a service pack issue, or a registration issue?

This is a well known problem. Check the MS knowledge base for the answer - 

I can't recall exactly what the fix is from memory. If you can't find it, 

join the Access-L list and search the archives - it comes up a least a 

couple of times a year.



HTH,



Peter
