When trying to install a VB3 program on Win95 (OSR2) i get this message
"Can't load custom control dll: C:\windows\system\graph.vbx"
The vbx is present and the program was written with VB3 professoinal
edition. I have renamed the vbx (to graph.vbo) and installed the graph.vbx
again.
The installation is succesful on an old (original version) of win95 on
another machine.
I am unsure if this is significant, i.e. is there a conflict with this
version of the graph.vbx and OSR2.
All comments welcome.

this sounds like there are missing dlls in your installation......

try looking in the help files for a list of "required runtime file" and
check they are in your graph.vbx section of your swdepend.ini file.

I Just went through this with a client. There are 3 files necessary to run the
graph control.

Graph.VBX 31,440 4/28/93
GSW.EXE 286,720 10/05/92
GSWDLL.DLL 72,192 10/05/92

According to Microsoft all three of these files must be in the Windows\System
directory and not any where else on the system path.

Once you make sure of this it should work just fine. To try it out all you do
is type in GSW and if it loads OK you will see the Graph Icon on the task bar.
