Installing and Registering ActiveX Controls

At setup, the Professional and Enterprise Editions automatically install and register ActiveX controls in the \Windows\System or System32 directory. You are then able to use the ActiveX controls at design time to build your applications.

If you plan to create a setup program for your application, you'll need to include information on any ActiveX controls in the Setup.lst file. For more information, see "Distributing Your Applications," in the Visual Basic Programmer's Guide.

Note   It is a violation of your license agreement to copy and distribute any information from the "Licenses" section of the system registry.
