Did MS Release a newer version of MSFLXGRD.OCX that breaks legacy VB6 
applications?  I'm getting this error suddenly:

'Run Time Error 747'
" No Design-time license information found for control 
'MSFlexGridLib.MSFlexGrid'...

I tried using the AddLicense but that failed since the ocx is already in a 
form/project.

Thank you for all suggestions.

Basically your licensing file got trashed.

Have your recently installed .Net? Anything else? Done some cleaning?

How long as it been since you cleaned the Registry?

It is beginning to show up on my end users computers, not mine.  And it is 
happening at more than one location.

I install and register version 6.1.97.82 and my end users have version 
6.1.98.6. So, it appears they have a newer version of this component than I 
do in my development computer.

Thank you for any assistance, it is an urgent issue.

Do you mean 6.1.98.16? If so, it's part of the December 2008/May 2009(v2) 
Screwup update:

Description of the cumulative update rollup for the Visual Basic 6.0 Service 
Pack 6 Runtime Extended Files
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957924


See the heading "List of fixes to issues discovered in December 2008 
Cumulative Update for Visual Basic 6.0 Service Pack 6 (SP6) Runtime Extended 
Files".

One of them talks about using Controls.Add, but I tested this with Winsock 
when placed on a form and using Load method, and it was working fine. I 
didn't test Controls.Add which is one of the things that the article talked 
about.

Sounds promising. So... Microsoft may have released OCX's that broke legacy 
VB6 applications... so it seems to me.

Thank you.

Thank you very much. I'll give the new VB6 run times a try.
