Minimum version of Common controls?

edited December 2001 in General
I've just discovered that the report designer needs a more up to date
version of the Microsoft Common Controls. Can you tell me the minimum
version required? (My app is supposed to work on Win95, so this was a bit
of a problem for some users).

Thanks,

    Sorry, do not know the answer to this.

    Perhaps check the Delphi docs for the version of Delphi that you are
    using. RB is using Delphi's TreeView, ListView, Statusbar, RichEdit and
    perhaps a few other controls included with Delphi. The Delphi
    ComCtrls.pas unit is wrapper around the MS common controls API.

    Hi Matthew,

    I think you need the following update from MS :

    (MS isn't currently available for me, server down?)
    regards,

    Thanks both. My machine didn't have a problem - it was an end-user who
    "spotted" this issue for me. It's D5, so I'll go check what it needs (it
    works in Win98 without problem though).
