When i try to add a new Object in my ATL wizard generated application (selecting: Insert/New ATL Object) the Add a new Object is empty (based in the documentation is should contain Objects | Controls | Miscallaneous .
Can anybody tell me what I am missing ?????
You probably work under NT, and there's a bug in this case. If the installation was made with an an other user name, the registry is not well-updated for the others users.
You should add in HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/ATLWizard the following of each missing object:
1. Create a GUID with GuidGen.
2. Create a new key under HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/ATLWizard which name is the GUID you created.
3.Under this key, create 4 strings, called "Category", "Control", "Icon", "Name". Set their values to:
Category = "Objects"
Control = "object.ctl"
Icon = "Object.ico"
Name = "Simple Object"
re-open ATL wizard and see the difference.
You should do this for each basic object.

NB. Generally, I don't help "Anonymous" (we are on a programmer board, not on www.sex.com...), but I have spent some times to solve this problem when it happened to me, so...
Go to the directory where there is atlobj.dll (in general case c:\program files\DevStudio\SharedIde\bin\ide) and register it using regsvr32. It will update all the entries of your registry base.
