Hi,
This is non-CCP4 related question, I apologize to those who are not
interested. But I hope there might be someone over there with a good
answer.

Program: Accelry DS Visualizer 2.0 (Free ware). It has some interesting
features.

My intention: Create an image from pdb files and save as .msv file. Then in
PowerPoint this file can be inserted via an ActiveX Control window.

In 2003 version it works this way:

(1) Open ppt, then bring in “Visual Basic” and “Control Toolbox” panel.

(2) Click “More Controls” in “Control Toolbox” penal, then select “Accelrys
DSVisualizer ControlR1”

(3) The cursor becomes cross then makes a window in ppt slide.

(4) Switch ppt to “Full Screen” then right-click on black window to import
molecule file.

(5) Now you can manipulate the molecule as in DS Visualizer when ppt is in
“Full Screen”

However, in 2007 version the layout is different and the Visual Basic and
Control ToolBox exist in the Developer menu. I could not locate the Accelrys
DSVisualizer ControlR1. Instead there are entries such as "DSDisplayPanel
Class" and "DSStatusBar Class". Choosing either one and trying to draw a
window will give the same error: Could not access system registry.

I also posted a similar question to the Accelrys forum but no reply yet.

Thanks in advance.
