I have an app that uses the TX Text ActiveX control in many
windows. The control has just been updated from version
15.0 to 15.1. I would like to change all instances of the
15.0 control in my app to the 15.1 control. Apparently in
VB this is very easy. You can simply edit the OLE object
GUID from its current value to the new value and presto! its
done. Does anyone know a similar way to do this in PB?
What I want to avoid is having to edit every affected
window, delete the old controls, add the new controls, set
all the properties again, etc. etc. I fear though that the
OLE control details are embedded somehow in the binary data
section of the window definitions. TIA

Hi Ken,
Just seen your above post and it's the exact problem I'm facing now. I
created objects using TX Text control 15 and now my colleagues have
installed 15.1. The objects i created will not work on their pc. How
did you manage to get around this problem? (hope you did!)
Regards,
Lorenzo
