Problem with ActiveX in Microsoft Visual C++ 6?

I brought a program from my friend who made it in C++ and used Active X in his program. Now whenever i try to run this program on my computer i get following errors "The Active X control could not be instantiated." and then "The Active X control is not registered on this computer.Register the control and try again.".How to get rid of this problem and how can i register them.

you'll have to identify which control isn't installed. Your friend should have created an install package when he created the application (im assuming he just sent you binaries). Once you have identified the controls you can either register them with the regsvr32.exe command line or ask your friend to package the app up w/ an installer that will automatically do it for you.
