I used it with my VB6 in windows 10 64bit. It have no problem to communicate. However I cannot do package. It generates error 429: ActiveX component cannot create object. I am using Scomm32 (V9) test version.
Would anyone be able to help? thank you.

Sorry. I'm not sure I understand.

You can not do package?

Are you using the Package And Deployment Wizard?

If so then do you mean that the error occurs when you try to run the Package And Deployment Wizard to build the package?

Or when you attempt to use the package to install your program on another computer.

Thank you for your fast reply. After programming I need to package the application with the OCX for install in many computers. The error occurs when I am doing the packaging using VB6 Package and deployment wizard. It generates error 429.

I don't think it's a problem with our OCX. The problem you described sounds like a problem with Package And Deployment Wizard that did not install correctly on your 64bit Windows 10.

This ought to fix it.


Open a Command Prompt As Administrator.


cd to
c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio\vb98\wizards\pdwizard\

and then register pdwizard.ocx with

c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe pdwizard.ocx


then cd to

c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio\common\wizards98\

and register hostwiz.dll with

c:\windows\syswow64\regsvr32.exe hostwiz.dll


Register those two files and try again.

I don't use your OCX. I just wanted to say thank you for posting a solution to the P&DW problem on 64bit Windows 10.

Thank you.
