Thanks for the info.

But I think that is what the wcrdlls.exe "fixup" program was suppose to do
from the ftp.santronics.com ftp site?  It installs this microsoft OCX and
others and also REGISTER it.

Since you said you didn't have have to "REGISTER" it,  it probably means
that you ready had it installed before, but it was somehow deleted or your
registry or something is little mess  up.

Basically what I am saying OCX files and DLL files with OCX behavior (all
Microsoft stuff),  are not just put into the directory and expected to work.
They need to be registered, I believe with the REGSVR32.EXE program.   If
this was a new OCX,  just putting it there would not be correct.

Anyway others, like Mark Bappe, can better explain OCX better than me or
explain why it worked for you without registering it. :-)

Glad you are back up with wcReport.
