Installshields has good capabiliries to register the OCX for you, so you
don't have to bother for registering the ocx in the startup of your program.
In my opinion it's good manner to check for correct installation of the
OCX's in the startup of the progam by checking for availability of the class
in the registry and give a message to the user if he class isn't found. This
is better than registring the class yourself on startup of the program
bcause of the ocx's location on the harddisk.
HTH,
