| Ok this may be a dumb question since I'm no VB expert, But.
Q1: What are they used for and should they be installed by VB6 or the Service packs?
Q2: Have you installed the lates SP for VB 6?
Q3: Have you checke the MS website for any information?
Q4: Have you searche the MS Knowledgebase for any known issues?

| Need more information...
First of all, is this a project you are just trying to load for the first time?
Have you gone to controls and referenced these controls?
Are they listed in the controls dialog?
What Service Pack are you running for Visual Basic?
Is this an upgrade to ME and if so have they worked since the upgrade?
Have you tried re-registering the controls on the machine?
Lastly -- you might want to put this in the MCSD forum, more VB'rs will see it there. | |

| That's what I get for taking so long to type my response Yeti -- darn nephew took me away from the computer by showing me his 'money toes'.
I saw that KB article but wasn't sure that the problem was a licensing issue. That is why I was wondering about the service packs... | |

| What the heck are "money toes"? | |

| hehehehehehe
My 20 month old nephew dumped my change jar over. He spent at least an hour on the floor behind me putting money back in the jar and then dumping it out -- yelling "Money". Then he calls to me and says "look at my money toes" -- he took off his socks, stuck pennies between his toes and is walking around showing off his money toes -- giggling like a little laughing hyena!
Thanks for asking -- I love talking about that kid!
