Hi Peter,

I am trying to decipher the code. I am using you "frmTimeSheet" form which
seems to best suit my needs.

I entered the Design View and tried to copy flexigrid subform to a form in
my own database. This did not work. I then tried importing the entire form
and this did not work either.

The error message I receive is as follows:

"You do not have the licence required to use this ActiveX Control.

You tried to open a form containing an OLE object or an ActiveX Control or
you tried to create an ActiveX Control.

To obtain the appropriate licence, contact the company that provides the
licenced OLE object or ActiveX Control."

Where do I get this lincence? Is this not part of Access?

Hope you can help.

Regards
Ant

Hi Ant,

Glad to see you are trying this out.

Regarding the license problem, if you have a look at the Word document
(Using the Flex Grid Control in Microsoft Access.doc) that comes with
the demo, the References section near the end of the document explains
the procedure.

If you still have problems then post back.

Peter Hibbs.
