problems with datasocket web page

i've just followed the guide to create a web page with datasocket (an127). creating the files just works fine and i can open the .htm with ie on the developing system(nt4 with measurement studio 1.0.1).
i copied the .htm and the .cab file to a second system (win2k without any ni stuff) to check if the .htm is accessable through a network because my developing pc isn't connected to a network. but when i try to open the .htm file with ie nothing appears there. i allow all activx in ie, so that's not the problem. but why does it work only for the developing system? i read a few similiar questions but these weren't answered very well.
thx for your help.

Hi,

Do you have the .cab and .htm files in the public folder of the web server? becase the keyword that is generated in the HTML indicates IE to ask the server for the installer of the ActiveX, it will not read it automatically.

It works in the developing computer because you have the ocx installed there, since you built it there. One thing that you can try is take the ocx file to the second computer and register it there and then try to run the web page.

Here is a link on how to register the ocx.

I hope this helps!

thx for the quick answer. but i'm still not real happy with this. all i did is copying the .htm and the .cab into the same folder on the second pc, which isn't a web server. i just wanna see if i can open the .htm on an other system then the developing like it should be.
i'm not trying to open it through network.
i wanna try to register the ocx but which one? the the one that was generated by vb(project.ocx) or the cw*.ocx that is used in my project?

regards
