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?

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.

Hi,

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

Firstly, do our sample applications have the same problem on these PC's ?

Second, could you please show us a piece of code where do you call SetTheme? Also, can you check the value which is passed to SetTheme? Is it a normal object, or NULL value?

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

WBR,

Serge

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.

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.

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."
