Can v7 and v6 ActiveX componets run in side by side fashion?

scott · Post by **scott** » Wed Apr 20, 2005 11:29 pm

We have multiple applicaitons that use TChart, but we are not able to update them simultandiously, so some will be required to run against v6 ActiveX, while some need to be moved forward to v7 ActiveX. Is this possible?

Also, what issues exist when moving the HTML based application from v6 to v7? Are there any known issues that will need to be addressed?

Thank you,

Scott Small

Hi Scott,

Yes, this can be done. You shouldn't have any problem. Just install both version to your machine and both .ocx files will be registered as each of them has the version number on it (TeeChart6.ocx, TeeChart7.ocx).

Also, what issues exist when moving the HTML based application from v6 to v7? Are there any known issues that will need to be addressed?

At TeeChart program group you will find a document called "Upgrading from TeeChart v6" where you will find the instructions to update your current v6 applications to v7. At the TeeChart program group there are also a couple of utilities at the Utilities folder to upgrade your VB, VC++, ... applications from v6 to v7.
