2503.0. "ocx with VB5 on ALPHA" by ULYSSE::CATTOLICO () Fri Feb 21 1997 04:29

    Hi,
    
         this question is on VB5 on WNT Alpha 4.0.
    
         I had written some OCX with Visual C++ 4.0, registered
         them and I use them beautifully from Visual Basic 4.0 on
         WNT Intel 4.0.
    
         Then I decided to move everything to Alpha (Visual C++ 4.0,
         Visual Basic 5.0 beta).
         No problem in compiling my OCXs, registering them and using them
         from C++.
    
         However, when I try to include this controls in VB5
         (as "Components" or "Insertable Objects") I get the
         error: "Type Mismatch".
         BTW, the same error is returned when I try to include
         other controls such as "Microsoft Graph".
    
         Did anyone succeed in doing this?
    
    Thanks in advance
    
    Ciao

    Using Visual C++ 4.2 fixed the problem
