Error in XbpToolbar

[Piotr D]

Hi,
one of my customer report an error. This is only on computer with Office2022 (upgrade from Office2013). On another computers works fine. The line in program with error is:

::oToolbar:LoadImageSet( XBPTOOLBAR_STDIMAGES_SMALL )
::oToolbar:ButtonClick := {|oButton| ::ToolButtonClick(oButton)}
oButton := ::oToolbar:AddItem()
oButton:Image := STD_IMAGE_FILEOPEN <-- line 263


Has anyone encounered this problem? mscomctl.ocx is registered on this computer. This toolbar is created for an XbpRtf object.

Regards
Piotr

Solved!
The problem is identical like in 2012, described: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2597986
Runnig this batch as administrator:

REM delete bad register
reg delete hkcr\typelib\{831FDD16-0C5C-11D2-A9FC-0000F8754DA1}\2.0 /f

if exist %systemroot%\SysWOW64\cscript.exe goto 64
%systemroot%\system32\regsvr32 /u mscomctl.ocx
%systemroot%\system32\regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx
exit

:64
%systemroot%\sysWOW64\regsvr32 /u mscomctl.ocx
%systemroot%\sysWOW64\regsvr32 mscomctl.ocx

Exit

and all works fine.

[Piotr D]

Yes, Jimmy,
as you see, most people use XbpToolbar class, which is from XbpActiveXControl superclass.

hi,

it is a (bad) Joke that Alaska still provide XbpToolbar() and XbpStatusbar() which are using MsComCtrl.OCX

i have wrote those Controls as "native" Version in my DXE LIB, which i have send Roger some Years ago
it use Ot4Xb so Roger have never release it with Express++

now using Xbase++ v2.x somebody can try to re-write it for "pure" Xbase++
so if somebody is interest, write me a Private Email so i can send Source of Control

Anyone who is using eXpress++ had had DCTOOLBAR and DCSTATUSBAR for about 20 years now and this is all Xbase++ code.

[Piotr D]

But MsComCtrl.OCX is still needed to use with XbpRtf() (also DCRTF).

Yes it is. I didn't want to put a big investment of time into RTF.

[rdonnay]

it use Ot4Xb so Roger have never release it with Express++

Two times I incorporated third party features into eXpress++ and both times the developer failed to support his product.
That is why I only incorporate features that are available in Xbase++ libraries.

Yes ... it is a Problem of Alaska while they never wrote a never Version as "native" Control of RTF

btw, as i know MsComCtl.OCX use RTF v1.0

as i say i have almost every native Control in DXE LIB,
my DXE_RTF use "Riched20.dll"

if you like i can send you the Source of Class DXE_RTF()

p.s. only 1 x Source of 1 Control per User
