I have installed an application that uses the DynaZip Activex control
apparently(duzocx32.ocx, dzocx32.ocx, & dzstat32.ocx) but the form
containing this control produces errors stating "There is no object in this
control". The .OCX files are in the application's same folder. The DynaZip
Activex control is not listed in the Activex control
registration/unregistration dialog box in Access 97.

Do I need to otherwise "install" this Activex control somehow? I have placed
it in the same folder as other activex controls.
Thanks

Try registering it using regsvr32.exe

If you can't find regsvr32.exe on your machine, check out

It states
The specified library cannot be found.
Thanks

What are you typing to get that error message? Does the file that you're
trying to register exist on the machine?

I used the syntax "regsvr32 dzocx32.ocx", and I tried all three files.
Regsvr32 seems to be intended to register .dll files as command components
in the registry.

Unless dzocx32.ocx is in the computer's path, you need to include the
complete path:

regsvr32 "C:\Program Files\My Application\dzocx32.ocx"
