I have installed XceedComponents.exe version 3.2.9460.14460 on my vista pc. I open my Visual Basic 6 IDE, create a new form and put the zip control on the form. When i try to save the new form i get the following error message box: 

 System error &H80070057 (-2147024809). Wrong Parameter.

I also get this error when i change the source code of an old (existing) form with the zip control and try to save it.

Before i have installed the version 3.2.9373.11490 and have no problems.

Do you have an update that fix this problem?

 

i have exactly the same problem. After installing v3.2.9417 or v3.2.9460 i can't save forms with the zip control anymore. The really ugly thing is that the forms are corrupted now because the vb ide don't save the hidden form information correct...argh!

switchback to v3.2.9373 solves the problem!

my system:

Vista SP2

VB6 SP6

Question to the forum support staff:

Does the developers of the zip control read this forum or should we send a separate email to the support?

I have just opened a large project of mine and the form is now corrupt.

Looking at the form in notepad the END Tag is not being written , subsequently and controls after that cannot be loaded as the ozip is being treated as a container control. 

Begin XceedZipLibCtl.XceedZip oZip
      Left            =   120
      Top             =   0
      BasePath        =   "" 

I may be wrong on this but I know have a broken project.

I wish I had not even installed the latest to try it out and should have stuck with my old 6.0. Then again is this gonna cause an issue if another vendor installs 6.5 on a computer and my software tries to use it?

Hi,

We recently started using the PROP_ENTRY_TYPE() macro in response to Microsoft Security Bulletin MS09-035. This is what is causing problems with VB6.

We used the VT_UINT type for enumeration properties, which we now see is incorrect. It's now been changed to VT_UI4.

We included an updated DLL with this message. Can you test it on your end to see if it works for you?

I get no errors anymore when i save my vb6 form with version 6.5.9529.0.

Is this build safe or should we wait for an official update?

Hi,

This build is definitely safe, We posted it on this forum thread so that you wouldn't have to wait for an official release to get your code working.

Also, you will be notified when an official update has been released.
