Hello,

Thanks for the reply.

Attached is a zip file with two directories. FromIDE is the ocx project, ocx file, and test project straight from the IDE. The GUIDs match in the FRM and the VBP and match the OCX in bin.

The directory ForVBP contains the build file and group with the project and ocx. The GUIDs don't match, but the GUID from the visual basic project file matches the guid in bin.

There is a file called guidfind in bin that dumps the guid of an ocx or dll to a same named file with the extension .guid. Example: guidfind mycontrol.ocx creates the text file mycontrol.ocx.guid with the guid.

All this being said, the build is working 98% as I expect in that...
-compatibility is broken
-the control is built
-the .vbp is updated with the new guid from the freshly built ocx
-the project is built
-everything runs

The only catch is the frm GUID doesn't match the project guid.

Thanks for any feedback,
Sheryl

PS: I am running VBP 5.7. There is a png in the zip with the Help|About screen shot.
