Yes, it could be possible. It actually depends on which version was installed the latest -- their COM controls will be used by default.

2 following procedures should fix the problem:
1) re-register the latest version of the Calendar control: "regsvr32 Calendar.ocx"
2) In Visual Studio remove a reference to the control and  insert it once more to the correct version.

Something I should add:

I've always been a bit in the dark with the COM registration procedure / registry settings. I've relied fairly heavily on InstallShield to properly install the Codejock controls on the user's machines. As far as I can tell, it's been working.

I'm now wondering if the registry settings that InstallShield makes are causing this versioning conflict... Could this be a possibility?

Thanks for the reply Serge.

Not sure. I'll look into it.

The problem is occurring in the C# CalendarControl sample that ships with 10.4.1 (with no changes): 


               CalendarThemeOffice2007 pTheme2007;

               pTheme2007 = (CalendarThemeOffice2007)wndCalendarControl.Theme;

               if (pTheme2007 == null)

               {

                    pTheme2007 = new CalendarThemeOffice2007();

                    wndCalendarControl.SetTheme(pTheme2007);

                    mnuThemeOffice2007.Checked = true;

               }

pTheme2007 is indeed a non-null COM object.

I'll let you know what comes of my tests on machines other than this one.

Cheers ~ jp

Hi,
 
Well, simply having 2 versions on the same PC shouldn't cause any problem. There should be always something that uses them.

And lastly, you have to check references to controls which project do use.

Serge -
I have a product in production and deployed that uses 10.3 - so yes, I have two different versions of the controls on my machine. Should it be possible to function correctly in this situation? What if a customer has this 10.3 product installed, then installs a new product using 10.4.1... will they encounter the same error?

Since I made my full evangelical swing over to C# and the .NET platform, one of the biggest benefits has been less versioning problems. I really look forward to the day that Codejock releases a 100% .NET product.

Cheers ~ jp

Hi,

Certainly it doesn't require Office 2007 to be installed.

Do you have a few different versions of the control installed simultanuously? This might be a sourece of the problem...

Also, which version of Visual Studio do you use? We've found a small issue with samples usage in VS 2002 -- this could also be a cause.

Codejock -
Should this be submitted as a bug?

Thanks ~ jp

Hope I'm simply missing something, but is Office 2007 required to be installed on a machine before the Office 2007 Calendar Theme functions as expected?

Both .NET sample apps(C# or VB.NET) for the Calendar control are failing on the SetTheme() method with an exception that states "Value does not fall within the expected range."
