Question and Answer Database FAQ: FAQ4623C — Porting FirstImpressions ActiveX control from BCB1 to BCB4 Category: ActiveX/OLE/COM/ActiveForm Platform: All-32Bit Product: All-CBuilder, Question: I have written an application in C++Builder 1.0 and I have now ported it to C++Builder 4.0. Everything seems to work properly except a form which contained a FirstImpressions Chart control which was included with C++Builder 1.0. Apparently this control has been changed or maybe no longer exist but there is an OCX with the same name. If I try to import the old FirstImpressions OCX the compiler tells me that it already exist with that name. How can I solve this? Answer: When you import the Control, you can change the name in the 'ClassName' memo in the Import dialog. That's the way to import Controls with clashing names. However, changing the name will require that your form changes its references to that control. You may try to find out what's already with that name on the palette and removing its package first. This will avoid the need to change references in the Form. 6/16/99 2:54:26 PM
