I have an application that was installed on a system and I have since changed the program. I was able to just compile the program and copy the .exe file to the system amd all works OK except that I added a DataGrid to the new version, so now the program won't show the form with the data grid ( Error Message: MSDataGrid.ocx is not registered and one or more files are missing....) I am hoping I can just install the ocx and register it...Is this possible? My .exe is only 700kb but to install the program with the Package and Deployment Wizard it takes over 7MB!! I would rather not have to go through the entire process of installing the entire program every time I make a revision. Any ideas??
Thanks Rick

just try it

your ocx file is probably in
c:windowssystemdbgrid32.ocx

copy it to the new machine and register it

OK so how do I register it?

I don't have my docs here at home but I think it is simply

c:windowssystem
egsvr32 dbgrid32.ocx

Well it worked! I got the error message and it stated msdatgrd.ocx was not registered so I copied it from my computer to the host (It is in Windows/system) and it all works great!!
Thanks
