Old ActiveForm information displayed
Question:
I updated my ActiveForm and I hit my web page in Internet
Explorer, but I get the old ActiveForm. What am I doing wrong?
Answer:
Even if you use version info, you'll see this happening in some
cases. Usually it goes away if you unregister the OCX (in
C:\WINDOWS\OCCACHE\ or C:\WINNT\OCCACHE) using REGSVR32.EXE.
The recommended way of doing this is:
- Exit Internet Explorer.
- Run "regsvr32.exe /u c:\windows\occache\MyActiveX.ocx"
- Restart Internet Explorer and hit the web page again.
If you deploy extra files that you ActiveX is using you might
be helped by knowing that all the stuff is being pulled down to
your OCCACHE directory and if Internet Explorer determines that
there is a conflict - it'll put some files in
OCCACHE\CONFLICT.x (x is a number) directories.
