RMChart and Windows 7

I have a customer who cannot get RMChart to work on his Windows 7 computer.

I have no problem with the 1.12.2008 version running on my Windows 7 (64-bit) netbook.

Is anyone using RMChart on Win 7?

Yes. Active-X-version. Works perfect on all kinds of systems at hundreds of customer's sites.

Tom -

How do you register the OCX?

Do you do it in the application code or in the install program?

Hi, Roger.

By the installer (Inno Setup). The app itself looks for several components and tries to install them if they are not installed, starting REGSVR32 with RunShell. This works on Vista or 7 only if the app runs with admin rights.
Edit: RMCHART.DLL is needed even if the OCX is used!

This is what I understood to be true.

I suspect that the customer is trying to register without Admin rights.

Thanks.

Tom,

Do you register Codejock also with Inno-Setup?
