First let me say that the vb.net sample project provided by CodeJock works fine and as expected.

My environment is Visual Studio 2008 working with .NET 3.5 running a VB.NET project

I have tried to mimick the references and controls from the sample project into my own project with no success.

I am able to place a PropertyGrid control on my form but as soon as i load that form I get the "Class not Registered" error. Below is the trace:

InnerException: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException
       ErrorCode=-2147221164
       Message="Class not registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 (REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))"
       Source="System.Windows.Forms"
       StackTrace:

            at EngraveProX5.NewPreferences..ctor()
       InnerException:

I am pretty much at a loss at this point as to whats wrong and would appreciate any feedback to help me possibly find a solution.

Do you have x64 OS ?

Try reproduce it with new project and attach here to check what you do wrong.

No this is on a 32-bit.

I started a new project and I dont have this issue. This is why I am at a loss as to why its happening in my other project.

If I try to perfomr the same steps to add the property grid control to a fomr in my application, the first message i get is: Failed to import the ActiveX Control. Please ensure it is properly registered.

I just downloaded the eval version of SuitePro ActiveX 2011 and was trying to build one of their sample C# .NET programs on Visual Studio 2008 on a Win7 box and got the same error.

You need to make sure the project Platform type is x86 for either Debug or Release to properly build. If you still get errors, make sure that the ActiveX controls are registered with your system - use the COM Registrator that comes installed with Codejock's software.

Hope this helps.

By default .NET is set to "Any CPU", like said previously, be sure it is x86 for the eval. In the retail you can use x64 ocx if you wish.
