    Hi I have a c++ project compiled in MSVC2012 that uses vsflex8l.ocx. I’m trying to upgrade this project to MSVC2017 (particular version is required) on another PC.

    I have copied vsflex8l.ocx to the same location on the other PC (C:\WINDOWS\system32) and registered the control using REGSVR32. This was successful.

    When trying to compile I get an error

    Cannot open type library file: ‘C:\WINDOWS\system32\vsflex8l.ocx’: No such file or directory

    Can you please assist, I assume I’m missing an obvious step somewhere.
