Hi!

I was wondering if any of you knew how to retrieve a list of installed ActiveX controls, and add them to a listview with their classID

Any help would be appreciate

Thankyou

I'd iterate over all registry entries under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT and check the CLSID subkey.
Then, with the CLSID found, read HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\foundGUID Key=InprocServer32 to find the path to the OCX.
