MS Access Forum / Modules / DAO / VBA / March 2005MSComDlg.CommonDialog problems
I am trying to use the CommonDialog control but every time I try and insert the ActiveX control onto a form I get a message saying I dont have a license to use the control. Since this is a publicly available control by created by microsoft why should I need a license? I have also tried to create the control via CreateObject() but receive an error stating "ActiveX component could not create object". There are two files: C:\windows\system\comdlg32.ocx and C:\windows\system\comdlg32.dll which i have tried registering and unregistering to try and get this to work. Neither helped, I also downloaded different versions of the files and got nowhere. I am able to create other objects using different progId's but I cant create this one. Any ideas how I can get around this licensing problem?

Hi, CommonDialog is not publicly available, in order to insert it into access form you have to purchase corresponding developer edition of office. so best is to follow Tom's advice  SignatureAlex Dybenko (MVP) http://Alex.Dybenko.com http://www.PointLtd.com >I am trying to use the CommonDialog control but every time I try and insert >the ActiveX control onto a form I get a message saying I dont have a [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Any ideas how I can get around this licensing problem? I am having the same license problem with the common dialog. I currently use the common dialog controls on many forms. I do not want to rip it out and replace it with the api call that everyone seems to be pushing. The Access application was developed in access 2000 but when I try to modify the application using access 2003 all the common dialog controls are replaced with the empty placeholder. When I try to insert the control that came with Office Professional Enterprise Edition 2003 I get the license error. As far as I know this is the developer edition of Access 2003. If I create a brand new database with Access 2003 and add a form and drop the "Microsoft Common Dialog Control, version 6.0" on the form I get the error "You don't have the license to use this ActiveX control.

Hi, i don;t think Office Professional Enterprise Edition include developers tools, look here: http://msdn.microsoft.com/office/technologyinfo/devtools/default.aspx SignatureAlex Dybenko (MVP) http://Alex.Dybenko.com http://www.PointLtd.com >I am having the same license problem with the common dialog.

I have now installed "Office Access 2003 Developer Extensions" and "Visual Studio Tools for the Microsoft Office System 2003". I am still getting the "You don't have the license to use this ActiveX control." message.

I tried to run the utility anyway and it said that office developer tools not found. That is correct I do not have Office 97 Developer tools installed. I am running Office 2003.
