INTRODUCTION

The Microsoft Access Developer's Toolkit (ADT) version 2.0 Service Pack contains three custom controls (.OCX files) that replace the existing custom controls in your Microsoft ADT directory (C:\ACCESS\ADT or C:\MSOFFICE\ACCESS\ADT). The Service Pack includes the latest version of the following custom controls:

  • Calendar Control (MSACAL20.OCX version 1.0.002 dated 8/21/95)
  • Scrollbar Control (MSASB20.OCX version 1.0.002 dated 8/21/95)
  • Data Outline Control (OUTL1016.OCX version 1.0.013 dated 8/21/95)

The updated custom controls correct the general protection fault that may occur if you use the original custom controls in Windows(R) 95 or Windows NT(TM) version 3.51.

INSTALLATION

If they are running, quit the ADT and Microsoft Access, and then copy the files from the enclosed disk (or the files you downloaded from an online service) to your C:\ACCESS\ADT (or C:\MSOFFICE\ACCESS\ADT) directory.

Important: When you install the updated custom controls, make sure that you replace the original .OCX files with the newer files. If you have two versions of the same custom controls in your Microsoft ADT directory, you may experience problems when you use the custom controls in Microsoft Access.

After you install the updated custom controls, you should reregister them and their supporting dynamic link library (OC1016.DLL). To register a custom control or OC1016.DLL, follow the steps for your operating system.

For Microsoft Windows 95

  1. Click the Start button, and then click Run.

  2. In the Open text box, type a command similar to the following line:

          c:\application\msareg.exe c:\application\control.ocx
    

    For example, to register the Calendar control, type the following line:

          c:\access\adt\msareg.exe c:\access\adt\msacal20.ocx
    

    To register the custom control's supporting DLL, type the following line:

          c:\access\adt\msareg.exe c:\windows\system\oc1016.dll
    

  3. Click OK to run the MSAREG.EXE file and to register the OLE custom control.

For Microsoft Windows NT

  1. In Program Manager or File Manager, click Run on the File menu.

  2. In the Command text box, type a command similar to the following line:

          c:\application\msareg.exe c:\application\control.ocx
    

    For example, to register the Calendar control, type the following line:

          c:\access\adt\msareg.exe c:\access\adt\msacal20.ocx
    

    To register the custom control's supporting DLL, type the following line:

          c:\access\adt\msareg.exe c:\windows\system\oc1016.dll
    

  3. Click OK to run the MSAREG.EXE file and to register the OLE custom control.
