Hi all,

When using aximp.exe that comes with SDK to create a .NET assembly for
Windows Media Player ActiveX Control, I got the following error
message:
"AxImp Error: Did not find a registered ActiveX control in
'c:\windows\system32\msdxm.ocx'."

However, msdxm.ocx does exist in c:\windows\system32. I just wonder
what makes this error happen. Could any one tell me the reason and
how to solve this problem?

Regards,
Chao-Jen Chen

Hi Chen

You need to register the ActiveX first.
Regsvr32 msdxm.ocx can do that.
I noticed that for some OS, it is registered by default, some not.
It confused me once.

Good luck!
Jason
