comdlg32.ocx and VB6 runtime

For all of those who cannot find comdlg32.ocx and/or the VB 6.0 runtime files, I have tracked them down and will post them here. Also, make sure you restart your system after installation.

Here are the VB 6.0 runtime files:

And here is comdlg32.ocx by itself. Make sure that you put the file in the "windows\system" ("windows\system32" if you have it) folder so all applications can use it. Hopefully this can help solve some problems.

Thank you for your help (I don't need it, but there are lots of noobs out there). Anyway I'd not put the file here. Instead I'd link to Microsoft.

Visual Basic 6 Runtime:
http://download.microsoft.com/downlo...vbrun60sp5.exe - Microsoft

And for comdlg32.ocx I just want to say that:
- for Win95/98/ME you have to put it into %windir%\SYSTEM
- for WinNT/2k/XP you have to put it into %windir%\SYSTEM32

You have to restart your system that comdlg32.ocx will be recognized by your system.

%windir% = Windows directory

i already have comdlg32.ocx, it came with the image extractor but do i need to move it into the system folder thingy? I have tried that before and nothing much changes. when i person says they have a problem with comdlg32.ocx they mean (4 future reference) that they have it but the Image extractor doesn't regonise this. I'll try your idea, but i dont think it will work, nothing else has 4 me.

no offence with all that or anything. Last time i offended somone i got a serious verbal whooping.

YES! IT WORKED! IT WORKED!

*sob* it worked! I am sooo happy *sob* give me a hug.
why didn't it work before?

incase you dont know, it can also be found in your wc3 CD. =p

I've forgotten that you need a system restart that comdlg32.ocx will be recognized by your system.


Really?

ooops..
i checked the CD and it only has the vb file... =(
no comdlg32.ocx

Yeah!
I also found it! It is in "Support\SysInfo\".:foot:

THANK YOU SO MUCH IT WORKS NOW FINALLY!!!
after DLing 3 versions of comdlg32.ocx :infth:

Good to have a thread to where you can redirect the noobs and not always need to search for the links :D

I will add it to the list of Important threads. I didn't add it because it's rather old.

wut does comdlg32.ocx do ne wayz?

not to sound noobishor nething

many VB programs use it to display file selection dialogs. It gives the programmer a new object that can be used for that
