c++coder, error messages........ Options

[Guest_Guest_*]

I recently downloaded the c++coder program and installed it on my computer.
So far so good.
Launching the program seems to be no problem, but when I try to access the c++ excercises I get this error message:

"Run-time error '339':

Component 'COMCTL32.OCX' or one of its dependencies
not correctly registered:
a file is missing or invalid
--------------------------------------------------------------
Andybody know why this happens?

I'm using a Compaq Presario, P3 1000ghz, 256mb, Win ME

[usr.c]

Hi there,

Which version did you download? This is a bug in v1.2, which has been fixed in v1.5.

What operating system are you using?

[lnx]

I downloaded coder v1.5......

I'm using windows me

[usr.c]

That's strange since v1.5 does not have that bug. My advise is to download the application again from http://www.cyberiapc.com/aa/ccoder/ccoder15.exe, uninstall your current version and the then reinstall it. That should register all the required dependency files.

If that fails please let me know

[lnx]

I reinstalled the coder program once more, but still no luck.
Still get the error message......
I've also updated the comctl32.ocx file but instead I get
a new error message:

Run-time error '372':

"Failed to load control 'Tabstrip' from comctl32.ocx
Your version of comctl32.ocx may be outdated.
Make sure you are using the version of the control
that was provided with your application"

The version of comctl32.ocx that I have installed on win ME
is 6.0.81.5, previous version was 5.0.38.28..........

Any tips?

[usr.c]

The version of comctl that comes with the program is the one to use. Try manually registering the component using the following process, even though the installation should have automatically registered the component for you:

Save the component at a location that you will never move it fromsuch as C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32
Go to Start, Run and type:

REGSVR32 C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\COMCTL32.OCX (change the path to wherever the component exists)

Click OK.

Let me know how it goes

[lnx]

I manually registered the comctl like you said and it works.
Don't get any error messages anymore.

Thanks for the tip, you've been very helpful.

Hi, that error happened to me to (the 339)
But I use Windows 98. How do I solve it?

And whats that comctl32.ocx file? I used the windows search and i didnt find it. Do I have to download it?

[usr.c]

Welcome to the board Zep!

comctl.ocx is the dependency needed to run the tabstrip component which exists in the "Exercises" section. You should have it in your C:\Windows\System or C:\Windows\System32 folder. If not, then try the same process I described and it should take care of the problem.

[Zep]

I searched in the windows\system, but I didnt find any comctl32.ocx.
Just mscomctl.ocx or comctl.dll

[usr.c]

Look in your System32 folder. Did you follow the dependency registration process that I described in my last post?

[Zep]

This file just don't exist in my computer.

And I inserted that code in Start->Run and it just gives a LoadLibrary error

[usr.c]

I don't really have any more suggestions other than what I already mentioned about uninstalling and then reinstalling the program.

Sorry..
