It is not a problem with the routine as such.
There was a similar problem I had with XP SP2, I think. Something to do
with changed permissions/rights or whatever.
For some OCXs an upgrade may be an option - Otherwise I believe there is
a workaround but I am sorry I cannot recall the details - it did not
take me too long to find the info I needed with Google
