UserControl question

benita ron

2/27/2012 6:06:00 PM

I have found a VB6 application that contains a form and a usercontrol,
that work well.

I want to import both the Usercontrol and the form to another
application but get an error with the form ("should reference the
UC...") although the UC has been imported

It's the first time that I deal with UC and it seem that I don't
understand the concept

Any help

Avi

Well, you don't really "import" anything. Just add each module to your
project. Be sure to add the UserControl first. If you still have problems,
post the EXACT and COMPLETE error that VB is giving you. It's possible that
the UserControl has references to something else (another module or perhaps
a library) that you must also add.

The project name is part of the reference in the frm file contents.
Make sure you change that to match the new project name, and add the
user control first.

Besides what others suggested, make sure that you copy the FRX and CTX files
along with the FRM and CTL files. These files contain property values that
contain binary data, such as the Picture property. Try viewing a FRM file in
Notepad and search for FRX to see which property is reliant on the FRX file.
