Ensuring users have all Active X controls etc

[stevievee]

Hi,

I am experiencing problems with a small app I have written which is an Excel form and an Access database. I think I need to distribute the ActiveX components I have used to these users, in particular the Tree View.

Is there a way to do this? I realise I need to distribute the files and register them, but I'm not sure the of the best way of acheiving this.

The method im currently using,

1) place all .DLL .OCX .TLB files used in a dir

2) Add Regsvr32.exe to the files

3) Write a batch file to move the files to the system file
eg(copy *.DLL %windir%\system\*.*)

4) add lines to batch file to register

eg(regsvr32.exe /s %windir%\system\olemsg.dll)

/s hides the finished screen so no user interaction is required.
