CAUSE

The registry contains an invalid TypeLib version key.

The Windows Me TypeLib version registry key for the Imgedit.ocx file is for TypeLib version 2.2, but the Imgedit.ocx file contains TypeLib version 2.1. When Visual Basic attempts to load the control, it finds that the TypeLib versions do not match.

  1. Click Start, click Run, and type regsvr32 /u imgedit.ocx. This unregisters the control.
  2. Click Start, click Run, and type regsvr32 imgedit.ocx. This re-registers the control.
  3. In Visual Basic, create a new Standard EXE project.
  4. On the Project menu, click Components.
  5. Click to select the Kodak Image Edit Control check box.
  6. Click Apply.
You can now use the control.
