Activex options greyed out

[shivels]

I got those same errors in VC++ but thought I was doing something wrong.  I used dependency Walker and saw two dlls not found, MSJAVA.dll(which I can get) and EFSADU.dll.  I found these dlls and attached them.

Those 2 DLLs are unlikely to be an issue. The first is an optional module used by MSHTML.DLL, and the MSHTML DLL can handle the omission of MSJAVA.DLL. The second is used for file system encryption, and I doubt that has any part in the issue here.

I would suggest going back to whoever gave you the DLL and ask them to verify its operation in, say, VB.NET.

I do Have the same problem with a third party activeX Module.

a third of the methods are greyed out and unselectable.

I noticed that all the unselectable methods are those sending results in "complex data structure" like this (I copied a description of the structure from the 3rd party activeX manual):

BOOL	present	Whether the property is present
BOOL	autoSupported	Whether auto is supported
BOOL	manualSupported	Whether manual is supported
BOOL	onOffSupported	Whether on / off is supported
BOOL	onePushSupported	Whether one push is supported
BOOL	absValSupported	Whether absolute mode is supported
BOOL	readOutSupported	Whether the property value can be read out
LONG	min	Minimum value
LONG	max	Maximum value

I regsvr32 the activex dll and put 2 extra dlls in the system32 folder...

It is as if some complex datatype could not be handled...

My config :

Windows XP sp2

labview 8.6.1
