Question: I receive an "Object
or control not found" error when I try to open certain forms.
Answer: An ActiveX control may not have been properly
registered during setup or might have been unregistered
accidentally through another program installation. The error
message generated in Catalyst will be “object or control not
found”, "object not loaded", or "load library failed" when trying
to open the form containing the unregistered control. This error
can often be resolved by verifying the file exists on the hard
drive and re-registering the control as follows:
- Identify the ActiveX control that needs to
be registered by associating the control to the form the error
occurs from the table below.

- Open the ActiveX Controls window by
selecting File > Database Management > ActiveX Controls
from the
Catalyst main menu.
- Click the Register button and
browse for the problematic ActiveX control using the file name
from the table in step 1 above. All of the ActiveX controls used
in Catalyst are copied to the Windows\System32 directory during
setup.
- Add
the ActiveX control by clicking the OK button. Close the
ActiveX Controls window.
