SYMPTOMS
The Package and Deployment Wizard- (PDW) generated HTML page for IE 3.x will not contain the CLSID for an ActiveX Document EXE.



RESOLUTION
Use REGEDIT to determine CLSID for your project and manually enter the CLSID in the PDW generated HTML page.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article.



Steps to Reproduce Behavior
 Start Visual Basic 6.0 and select ActiveX Document EXE. Save the project as follows:

"C:\Test\project1.vbp" Start the Visual Basic 6.0 Package and Deployment Wizard, click the "Package" button, and compile the project. Select "Internet Package," and go through to the "Finished" step using the default options.  Click "Finish," and then generate the setup program.

Result:

The generated PDW HTML page does not contain CLSID as shown in the example below:  <HEAD> <TITLE>YourProject.CAB</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY>

<a href=UserDocument1.VBD>UserDocument1.VBD</a>

</BODY> </HTML>

</li></ol>
