What file version do you suggest to distribute for COMCT232.OCX?
I don't find it in the service pack and it's taking the one from Windows
Vista's system32 folder...

As it is not normally distributed, you should include the version you
compiled against with your setup/install. If there is already a newer
version on the target it should not be replaced.

What exactly is theming support? I've never heard the term before.

Raises an interesting question. Say you want to use VB6, and are
pretty much done with VB5. No need to install it on a given system.
Anyone know what the most expedient way to get the v5 common controls
loaded, without tanking up the whole product?

Thanks... Karl
