Where the objects are stored on the hard drive
If they are ActiveX (so registration is required), location is somewhat
irrelevant as the Registry controls access. It then becomes a question of preference/convention, although <%Windows%\System32\ is popular. ..cnt are associated with help file AFAIK, so either in your <%Windows%\Help\ folder or the folder of the app that the Help applies to. I believe an app searches the PATH variable to find help file. NickHK "Zigball" wrote in message ps.com...

Where the objects are stored on the hard drive
I just registered an .OCX file the other day...
I put this in the start run bar to register it: regsvr32 \windows\system32\MSCOMCT2.OCX the file was called MSCOMCT2.OCX and I put it in Windows\System32 hope that helps theSquirrel NickHK wrote: If they are ActiveX (so registration is required), location is somewhat irrelevant as the Registry controls access.
