Hello, I am trying to install the latest BETA Version of DB (15.0.0.73), but the files Pego32d.ocx and Pesgo32d.ocx cannot be registered, I have tried to do it mannually with the Microsoft Register Server but it does not work. Any suggestions?

Tks

OK I though as much. The most recent versions of DB have a dependency on the GDIPlus.dll library. GDIPlus comes installed with XP and Vista but not with Win2000. DB should be installing it on Win2000 computers but it sounds like this installation is not working. I'll do some more tests at this end. In the meantime you could try downloading GDIPlus.dll from the web and putting it in the c:\winnt\system32 folder. (I think that's all that is required).

The current release works OK on our Win2000 machines and I'm not sure why it's not working for you, but for the next release the GDIPlus.dll will be copied to the lib folder where the files Pego32d.ocx and Pesgo32d.ocx are. This may fix the problem. You could also perhaps try doing this manually. GDIPlus.dll should be at c:\program files\DesignBuilder. Try copying this file to the lib folder and then re-register the ocx files.
