I am using Access 2002 with either Service Pack 1 or 3. (I have seen
this problem on 4 different OSs (NT, XP Home, XP Pro, Winows 2000)
across 8 different machines)
I have an ActiveX Object (Microsoft Common dialog Control, version 6)
that, when I attempt add or copy the control in an access application,
I get the above error.
When attempting to use the Microsoft Communications Control, version
6.0 ActiveX object I get the error "The OLE server isn't registered.
To register teh OLE server, reinstall it."
Both Comdlg32.OCX and Comctl32.ocx are present on the machines in the
System32 directory.
I can use any existing CommonDialog ActiveX object that exists in an
Access application. It appears that I can use other Microsoft ActiveX
objects but I can not use any "version 6.0" ActiveX objects.
Any ideas on what I need to do to get them operational again?

what are you using the CommonDialog control to do? There's a good
chance you don't need to use an ActiveX control at all.
There are two types of licencing for ActiveX controls; user licence and
developer licence.
A user licence (which is what you have) allows you to use the control in an
application.
A developer licence allows you to implement a control in an application.
If you previously implemented these controls then you need to re-install the
application which gave you the developer licence (e,g, Visual Dtudio 6).

Terry Kreft,
Thanks that is it! I uninstalled Visual Studio 6 a while ago because I
wasn't using it that much. I will just put it back. Thanks again.

Or, entirely avoid having to distribute, install, and register an Active X
by just using the Common Dialog Open/Save File APIs as described in http://www.mvps.org/access/api/api0001.htm. It even includes sample code for
calling it; worked first time for me; and, it simplifies distribution and
maintenance significantly.

I've got what should be a simple assignment of either an element value
or a default string to a variable, but when the element doesn't exist I
get an "Object required" error rather than an assignment of the default
value.
I originally used the simple statement:
var v = document.getElementById('foo').value ||
parent.document.getElementById('foo').value ||
'unknown';

Hey guys:
What can I do when an "Error Creating Control" is displayed on the form
(instead of the control), and a tooltip indicating the error never is
displayed?
Is there some log, some hidden message, some entry in registry where a
log is created (or that enables a log, trace, dump or whatever)...
I'm a little bit frustated with this error :-(
Tks,
Ravi.

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
