Common Dialog Control not properly licensed
 

I am using a book "Excel VBA Macro Programming" to teach myself how to
enhance my finance spreadsheets. There is a project in the book to color
alternating lines on a spreadsheet. Though I already can do this with the
built-in menus, I thought this should be a 'simple' project to teach myself
about forms and ActiveX controls. The book says to use the Common Dialog
Control. I go to Additional Controls, select Microsoft Common Dialog 6.0,
drag it to the form and click. I get a message "The control could not be
created because it is not properly licensed." I tried to 'register' it as
described on this site, but still get the error. I am using Office 2000
running under Windows 2000.

Common Dialog Control not properly licensed
 

every PC can run that control...

BUT you can only add that control to your project
if you own a copy Office Developer or VB6
