Listview not working in Windows 7 - 32 bit

I am using the Listview control with no problems in windows 7 - 64 bit. When I try to open that same XLSM file in Windows 7 32 bit (I have registred MScomCtl.ocx on both PCs) - I get a factoryclass error. When I google it - I get message that it is DLL hell. so inside the OCX there is a conflict - does anybody have experience with using Listview in Windows 7 - 32 bit.

Alternatively - can you have checkboxes in a standard ListBox? - I need the checkboxes so that is why I use ListView. Another alternative is something similar to a flexgrid control - But it seems Mr Gates are abandoning a lot of older stuff - so I am not sure what a good grid is these days.

Rasm, Listview control is unstable, and what you looked up is correct. You can use checkboxes in Listbox Controls. Here's an attachment which shows that..
