    ActiveX and Access: A Love Story

    Hi Everyone,



    Upon deploying a new machine for a user, I was required to register an ocx
    (MSCOMCT2.OCX) for two available controls (Microsoft ImageList Control, version 6.0 and Microsoft ListView Control, version 6.0). When opening the Access database while logged in as a local or domain admin, I am able to run and view queries. When I log in as the non-admin user, I can open the database and send a query, but can not view the results. My best guess is that the ocx is not registering due to security restrictions. Even after giving the user full security permissions to the system32 folder (where the ocx resides), the ocx file, and Access, I am still unable to view the results of any query. My company is revamping the local admin policy for regular users (for which I am coincidentally responsible), so I would like to veer away from letting the user keep admin rights (the current solution). On their old machine, the user was not a local admin, and I was able to view the query results while logged into their profile. But alas, I'm sure there are some questions I have left unanswered, so I turn the floor to those with more prestige in these matters.

    We've ended up formatting and reinstalling windows xp to get the listbox control working for some users. I haven't come up with any other solution.

Please reply to this thread with any new information or opinions.
