Re: Error: 7 Out of Memory

In reviewing what ActiveX controls were installed on one the trouble
PCs, it turns out the version of the MCI32.OCX version was 6.1.97.81
where I was trying to use as previously mentioned 6.0.84.18 and the
version of the MSCOMM32.OCX was 6.0.92.92 where I was using version
6.0.81.69. Once I copied these files and registered them on my test
PC, it was showing the exact same symptoms as the problem PCs. NOW the
question becomes one for me to answer as to how they got these newer
versions of these files. Thanks for the help!

The version for the MCI32.OCX control I'm installing is 6.0.84.18, so
that should be the latest. I will check the PCs to make sure they are
also using that version. The only dependency I see is for comcat.dll,
which I also have as part of my installation.

I did as you suggested Bob, and I have found out that the child form
that has the Up/Down control on it and the child forms without ActiveX
controls will load, but the rest will not.

I also just finished trying to remove the ActiveX controls to see if
the forms would then load, and they do (no shocking surprise there).
So, I guess I can conclude that it's the ActiveX controls causing the
problems. Any suggestions on how to figure out exactly what the system
finds to be the problems with the ActiveX controls and how to fix it?

The ActiveX controls are
COMDLG32.OCX - Image controls
MCI32.OCX - Multimedia control

fwiw, the DLL Help Database contains an older version of MCI32.OCX than I
have installed (which is 6.84.18, time stamped 5/22/2000 instead of the
v6.0.81.69 - 6/24/1998 version the database contains). I can't remember
using that control for any projects I have... but, if its dependencies are
updated when the media player is updated (by windows update/other) that may
be the culprit.
