Vb problem faced

I have an application that is using a Flexgrid control. The issue being faced is as follows.

When I try to load a form that uses the control I get the following error:
"Failed to load control vsflex8.ocx .Your version of may be
outdated. Make sure you are using the version of the control that was
provided with your application."

This happens only in the case of a normal windows user. If logged in as windows administrator there is no error.

Any solution will be greatly appreciated.

Check the registered version of FlexGrid on the deploymenty machine is the same, or later, as the registed version where the app was built.

Is it okay for admin on the same machine? I believe, from memory, that if a local admin user sets it up correctly, then it is accessible for all users.

Nagy, like I mentioned I do not have a problem when logged in as administrator. But as a normal user the error shows up. How can I install the application for all users of the computer??

First of all, have you verified if the vsflex control installed is the right version ? Have you checked then if there's some reason that a non admin user does not have access to this file ?

VB6 is obsolete, out of date, and was always rubbish. You should stop using it as soon as you can.

Thanks Christian,....I doubt if it has something to do with the version of the control as it seems to be working fine when logged in as admin. How do I check whether access to this control has been restricted for a normal user??

Please edit your post instead of posting fake 'answers'. You could check the version by right clicking on the file and checking it's properties. In there you can also check the permissions in terms of access to the file for different users.
