I am using a book "Excel VBA Macro Programming" to teach myself how to
enhance my finance spreadsheets. There is a project in the book to color
alternating lines on a spreadsheet. Though I already can do this with the
built-in menus, I thought this should be a 'simple' project to teach myself
about forms and ActiveX controls. The book says to use the Common Dialog
Control. I go to Additional Controls, select Microsoft Common Dialog 6.0,
drag it to the form and click. I get a message "The control could not be
created because it is not properly licensed." I tried to 'register' it as
described on this site, but still get the error.
