Flowchart in IE does not work

I tried flowchartX in IE. It works on the computer where FlowchartX is installed. But when I created its setup project and installed on client machine., it didn't work. lpk file and flowchartx.dll are included in the setup files.
Here is the code....
    ms_positioning="FlowLayout">
     <OBJECT classid="clsid:5220cb21-c88d-11cf-b347-00aa00a28331" VIEWASTEXT>
      <PARAM NAME="LPKPath" VALUE="FlowChartX.lpk">
     </OBJECT>
     <OBJECT id="fcMain" style="WIDTH: 600px; HEIGHT: 456px" classid="clsid:E3866A1E-48C9-4381-A9E8-82AC3BDDA921" VIEWASTEXT>
                  .....
        </OBJECT>


Is anything missing?

Thanks

Hi,

The flowchart.dll might not be registered on the client PC. Run a test desktop application there to confirm whether the dll is registered, or use the ActiveX test container.

The lpk file should not be installed on the client PC, but it must reside on the server where the html file is.

Just after loading the page, open the 'temporary internet files' on the client PC - sort the view by modification date and look for the last HTM file, which should contain a log. If there is an error, the log file will display the error code and could shed some light why the control could not load.

Stoyan

What is the OS version on the PC where it does not work ? If it is a Win9X version, you must install unicows.dll there too - that is the Microsoft Unicode Layer dll implementing Unicode support on Win95/98/ME. The dll is signed, so the IE setting for running signed controls should be 'enable' or 'promt'.

Thanks. That problem is resolved.
I have one more query. How to insert newline/carrige return in the text of a flowchart box. I tried with \n and\r. But it shows small square for those chars.

Thanks

Set the box TextStyle to one of the multi-line values, e.g. tsLeftML. The enumeration constants are not imported from the FlowChartX type library to VBScript or JavaScript, so use their numerical values as listed in the help file.
