Hi there;
I have just installed VBSP3 noticed that the properties of some of the
controls (eg. toolbar or tabstrib from the common windows controls
(comctl32.ocx) can't be accessed anymore. I am able to place the control on
a form but when accessing the properties following message pops up:

Class not registered
Looking for object with CLSID: {7EBDAAE2-8120-11CF-899F-00AA00688B10}

I looked in the registry and couldn't the CLSID but I have found references
to the toolbar or tabstrip with a different CLSID.

By the way, I also tried to reinstall VB 5.0 but it didn't help.

Any help on this would be appreciated!

PS. I have tried other controls some work some not, but the funny thing is
that the CLSID that is displayed in the error message seems to be the same.
There are basically three CLSID's: 7EBDAAE0-....., 7EBDAAE1-...... and
7EBDAAE2-....

Some controls included in SP2 are not in SP3...

This still doesn't explain that I can't view the properties of the controls!
Is there anyone who experienced the same?

What about reformating HD ?
I don't know why but it worked out on my PC...

I have tried this already. I believe the only solution is uninstalling vb
making sure all files are gone and reinstall!!! I was hoping to avoid this
but it seems the only solution!
