Get vb.Net user controls to place on Access Form.

[Derek]

From MS Access 2000 I want to be able to add a user control created in MS Visual Studio .NET. It appears as an available reference in Access but when I register the control to be able to add it to a form I get an error, “D:\…\Mycontrol.dll could not be added/deleted. Install/remove the control using a separate setup utility.â€

Have you any suggestion what I need do to be able to access the control to place it on an Access form?

When I compile the user control in Visual studio I have the ‘Register for COM Interop’ checked

I've encountered this problem before. You can simply replace the "Mycontrol.dll" file with a new one and restart the computer. The problem should be solved then.

No Simon it's a bit trickier then that. I found a site that has almost done the job, it works in Word but not in Access. It is http://www.ondotnet.com/pub/a/dotnet/2003/01/20/winformshosting.htm
