Rich Textbox example doesn't work in Windows 7

In the past I use the Rich Textbox example (\samples\userint\activex\richTextxbox.prj) in Windows XP (CVI 2010 SP1).
Now I noticed that this example doesn't work in Windows 7 64-bit because the ActiveX is not registered on the system (see attached error.jpg).
Isn't this control installed by CVI IDE itself?
How can I get this example working on my Win 7 64-bit machine?

Using LV 2013 SP1 on Win 7 64bit
Using LV 8.2.1 on WinXP SP3
Using CVI 2012 SP1 on Win 7 64bit, WinXP and WinXP Embedded
Using CVI 6.0 on Win2k, WinXP and WinXP Embedded

Hi Vix
It looks like the Rich Textbox control component provided by one of the VB runtimes is no longer included by default with Windows 7.
I have been able to manually register the ActiveX control using Regsvr32 as described in the following Microsoft KB.
I was able to download the needed ActiveX control from here and from there you need to copy the .ocx ActiveX control to your C:\Windows\SysWOW64 directory. Open up a command prompt as administrator and run 'REGSVR32 RICHTX32.OCX'.
SysWOW64 is the 'Windows On Windows' emulation directory which is used for running 32 bit controls in a 64 bit environment.
I realise this isn't the best solution as it will make application deployment a little more complicated, another solution may be to use another RTF ActiveX control such as the one here: http://www.lebans.com/richtext.htm.

  • Application Restart and Recovery APIs doesn't work for windows services

    I am using the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism (provided in Windows API Code Pack for Microsoft.NET Framework) to collect some information (i.e. stack information when there's an unhandledexception)  before my windows service crash down.
    It works well for windows form applications, but the callback method wouldn't be called if the host is a windows service. 
    I have checked the article: https://msdn.microsoft.com/zh-cn/subscriptions/downloads/cc303708
    But it doesn't specify clearly whether it works for a windows service. It seems that the recovery will only be activated when the user interacts with the error dialog of Windows Error Reporting (clicking "close" on the dialog, for example).
    So I am wondering is my guess right that the Application Restart and Recovery mechanism doesn't work for windows services. Or is there a better way to meet my requirement? 

    I would suggest trying ARR if that's what you want to use.  The restart portion won't work, but it doesn't need to as if you fail out of your service, the Windows service controller will handle recovery (up to and including restarting your service).
     You configure those recovery actions either through code or one of the built in administrative tools for services such as services.msc.  
    DebugDiag/ADplus and similar tools ultimately do use built-in APIs; you don't need to add anything external to collect debugging information.  You do however have to write a good deal of code to do somethings.  It's pretty simple to use the unmanaged
    function that I pointed out before and
    MiniDumpWriteDump to write a minidump when you hit an unexpected error(the dbghelp.dll that comes installed with Windows has it so you don't need anything additional installed).  You can even write a basic debugger that literally debugs a process using
    only kernel32 functions (see
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ms679301(v=vs.85).aspx if you're interested).

  • Backlight doesn`t work on Windows Seven~ Please help!!

    I have Macbook Pro Z0G5 model

    Does anyone know how to turn it on??

    It is working properly now. it was a problem with classpath

    Make sure that u have the latest service pack jar file ( for example weblogic510sp11.jar
    for service pack 11 - use service pack 8 or later for better NTREALM configuration
    ) ahead of the weblogicaux.jar in your classpath. This should solve the problem.

  • "Email me" doesn't work in Windows

    Has anyone found that the "Email me" button doesn't work on Windows machines? I have just been told by one or two visitors to my website (www.aroundthebusch.com) who use Windows that the buttons didn't work.

    It may be a Flash Security issue... upload SWF to server, open it to browser from there and try your links again...

  • JClient query by example doesn't work in 10.1.2.

    I've a JClient application I migrated from 9.0.4 to 10.1.2.
    In the migrated app query by example doesn't work anymore in JTables.
    Could someone help ?
    Tks
    Tullio

    Frank, I got a testcase from Tullio. It's a 9.0.4 project uding JClient that is pre-ADF bindings.
    I migrated his 9.0.4 project to 9.0.5.2 first.
    In 9.0.5.2, I see already a change in behavior related to enter-query mode in the JTable, but the number of rows displayed looks correct.
    Tullio, can you confirm if the problem you are seeing vis a vis enter query mode is that if you:
    1. Click enter-query button
    2. Click into a field like Ename and type SMITH but don't [Tab] out of that field yet
    3. Click on the execute-query button
    It behaves as if you've entered no criteria there.
    If at step 2 above you clicked [Tab] to exit the field where you typed SMITH, then it works correctly.
    Is this the enter-query-JTable-related problem you're seeing (that is, related to when you don't focus-out of the field?)
    The "number-of-rows-displayed" issue you mention in this other thread (10.1.2 JClient binding Error. does reproduce with your testcase only in 10.1.2 (as well as also still having this 9.0.5.2 focus-related issue in enter query mode).

  • AT-AO-10 doesn´t work with Windows 2000

    I have an AT-AO-10 board that doesn’t work with Windows 2000. I have reserved two IRQs for legacy devices (non plug and play) in BIOS. The AT-AO-10 has got assigned these IRQs, a DMA and a base address that are free, and there aren’t any hardware conflicts, but the board doesn't pass the MAX's text.
    In Windows 'Information System', the board is shown in 'Forced hardware', but I don’t know that is a problem.
    If the board is unplugged, error messages are the same.

    Hello;
    You didn't mention what version of the NI-DAQ driver you are using over there. Anyway, my suggestion to you is to uninstall the NI-DAQ driver you have installed, remove the board, reboot the machine, download and install the latest NI-DAQ version (6.9.3) from NI web site.
    Try the installation with the new driver, and if that is still not working, the best bet is to try the same installation on a different machine to double check if the hardware is not defective.

    Hi candy, glad that you found that Shockwave Flash Object, it works with the Flash files and is very important
    The NPSWF files that you said are not there, those are for the Firefox browser or Chrome or some other browser. If you use Firefox and want the Flash Player for that, then close all of your browsers so you are only looking at your Desktop.
    Click on this Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop. Then RUN it from your Desktop, and after it is finished Installing, Restart your computer.
    Then Using Firefox go to the plug-ins and find a SWF vs 10.0.45.2 and make sure it is Enabled. This is just like the Shockwave Flash Object for Internet Explorer, but it is the one that works with Firefox.
    Let me know if that is what you wanted to do. If you don't use Firefox, but Chrome or another browser, then this will work for that one also.
    If you don't use another browser, then don't do any of this. I just thot maybe you did and that is why you were concerned that the NPSWF files were not there.
    Thanks,

  • Satellite A210 (PSAEG) - Microphone doesn't work on Windows 7 64bit

    Hello, the micro doesn't work under windows 7 64 bit, the driver I'm using is Windows Vsta 64 bit. The volume is set up maximun and so is the amplification but no way to make it work with skype or toshiba camera assistant software.
    Can anyone help me?
    thank you

    Hi Largo09,
    Usually you have to install the webcam and sound driver to get the microphone working. The microphone is a part of webcam
    As you wrote, Satellite A210 is not Windows 7 64bit supported so the only option you have are Vista 64bit drivers
    In my opinion you should check if Microphone is enabled in Windows sound settings. There you can also enable Microphone boost, that can increase the microphone volume.

    Hello,
    Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
    You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
    Then perform these steps:
    *Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
    *In the Firefox options window click the ''Advanced'' tab, then select "General".
    *In the settings list, you should find the ''Use hardware acceleration when available'' checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
    *Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
    Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:
    * [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]]
    * [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL]]
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    #? Hello.
    My?Audigy SE doesn't work in Windows 7!
    I know, it was not once posted here, but that's very annoying issue. I want it to be really fixed!
    I tried everything I found here and even more. Spent a lot of my personal time and have no result at all.
    Windows 7 Compatibility: Creative Sound Blaster Audigy SE Sound Card
    The situation sucks!
    I don't want to buy a new card! Why should I? It works in ANY previous Windows and even old versions of Linux. So, make it compatible with newer one!
    Regards.

    ' Installed device in another PC with same OS. And it worked (seems like fine) with latest drivers from Creative site.
    May be, the problem is that Setup doesn't delete old drivers or other stuff which conflicts with latest drivers? Before released drivers I tried to install beta and them didn't work. Yes, I uninstalled them and removed all drivers and software which I could with Device Manager. But it seems like it is installing well on "clean" system.
