I have just converted a Visual Basic 6 project to Visual Basic 2005 Express.
and ended up with 1000+ werrors but that is another story.

The main problem is that I am getting this error message (among others):
Failed to create the wrapper assembly "AxInetCtlsObjects". Did not find a registered ActiveX control in "InetCtlsObjects".

I assumed VB Express would take care of copying and renaming dlls and ocx files, and registering them.

Can anyone give me a clue what I am doing wrong, o what neds to be done to correct the problem?

The help files talk about referencing the dlls, but do not seem to have the info I need to correct the problem.

I believe many of the other errors will disappear when I solve this dll problem.

Cheers
 
You can add a reference to a dll by going to the solution explorer and there rt click references --> add references -->projects -->add dll.

i think this might help.
 
The dlls that are listed as missing do not exist in the reference list of available files.

Thanks for the suggestions but I am going to shelve the plan for a while.

I will continue to use the VB6 version of my programme in the meantime.

Cheers all!
