 Thread : Two OCX files missing?
 
More Information

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.win2000.general (More info?)

 

Win 2K Pro here with patches, sp4 and the recent rollup. I just
tried a freeware app which complained about RICHTX32.OCX
and also MSCOMCTL.OCX Those files were nowhere to be
found on my drive. I managed to obtain them from a internet
source and put them in my \system32 folder, after which the
freeware app worked.

I'm particularly interested in this question because I had just
used a MS util for removing MSJVM. I wonder if that util
removed the files, or if other users of Win 2K find they don't
have them either.

Depending on what version you're looking for these might get installed with
Visual Studio, Visual Foxpro or Office 2003 or a myriad of other but not
necessarily with the operating system.

richtx32.ocx is an ActiveX for rich-text usually done in VB text boxes. The
other mscomctl.ocx is an ActiveX used in what are called common controls.
Those are check boxes, dial circles, a variety of common controls. Again
usually found in Visual Basic. If you installed any application from
Microsoft which uses VBA you'd get those AxtiveX controls.

Yes, well I then see no reason to suspect that my use of the MSJVM
removal utility had anything to do with the fact that the OCX files
were missing on my fairly fresh install of Win 2K ... which has no
such additional MS software on it. Thanks.

Thanks, I knew what they were for. The point was that removing MSJVM didn't
unregister and remove them.

I know what you tried ;-)

I read your reply to 'idbeholda' about VTE. Good luck. I wasn't willing to give it a try.
Please update your reply when you have tested that application. I'd be *very* interested in
your opinion Art. Albeit our "friend" who post from the Ohio Library may not.

It means that 'idbeholda' wrote the application with dependencies and should have include
the OCX files in his distribution files.

David I think that's why it was "freeware?" As for the JVM issue I didn't
address it as Dave said all that needed to be said about that.
