Hi Mike.

I have tried to install the vb6 runtime files in the manner you suggested.
When I do that I get the following error:

error registering the OCX C:\WINNT40\System32\OLEAUT32.DLL

I think it's because a newer version is already registered.

Here is the log file from my application install attempt.

 %% PLEASE DO NOT MODIFY OR DELETE THIS FILE! %%
 %% This file contains information about the installation of an application.

 %% It will be used to automatically remove all application components from
