Hi.

I'm wondering if anyone has any hands on in this?
I have a borland app developed with 3rd party ocx.

when I drop the exe on a windows server 2003 machine and run it says
the class is not registered. I assume this meant ocx.

When I tried to register the ocx using this:

regsvr32 vuew,icx

I get a messagebox:

caption: Regsvr32
body: LoadLibrary("view.ocx") failed - The specified module could not
be found.


Is there something special on windows 2003 server? I can't see
anything online regarding this...


Thanks

More than likely view.ocx relies on other files (dll's, etc.) thant are not
present on the machine.

ah yes, good observation. err. one or two (hundred) files were

missing. It was not obvious to me that they were required for
registering.

Registration (at least by RegSvr32.exe) requires LoadLibrary followed by
a call into the DLL. For LoadLIbrary to succeed, the OS must
successfully load not only the DLL in question, but any others to which
it is linked.

There are other ways that registration could have been implemented, ones
that (for example) just relied on an embedded resource, but that would
have deferred the link problem being discovered. On balance, I think the
decision made was correct.
