Problem with ActiveX and vbd files

[Timothy O'Dell]

I have been having prblems with the ActiveX vbd files when I run my web application. When the app's initial page attempts to advance to another page in the program I get the pop up that ask if you want to save the or open the file(.vbd file). Does anyone know how to make it work so that it won't ask for if you want to open or save the new page.

Check your security-settings. Set them to low to accept usigned ActiveX-components.

I'm having problems with CR-7 reports. In this case it doesn't matter how low I set the security, it won't work. If I take an empty userdoc and refer to anything that has to do with CR it fails to install. The funny thing is that I don't use any CR-components on the Userdoc...

I have the Security set as low as it will go. I think it is a true bug in the ActiveX Model or something to do with IE.

Have you been able to get anything running, I mean like a "Hello World"-label on an otherwise empty ActX-doc?

I found that, in some cases, setting the security even lower the "Low"-preset (ie getting into the custom setup) made IE not to accept unsigned ActX-stuff. Weird or?

Rip your app appart to figure out exactly which component or reference causes the problem, In my case it didn't install until I took away all references to Crystal Reports components.
