1) I have V5.0.37.24 installed on win7 64 bit

2) I do not get errors when opening VB5.

3) I do not get errrors opening a simple VB project but do get errors
trying to open a more complex project.

I used a text editor to delete lines refering to comctl32.ocx,
comdlg32.ocx and msflxgrd.ocx and the project then opened in VB but
showed error messages Error Loading refer to The numerous Frm.logs.
Log entries refer to invalid properties.
When I tied to run it I got I got compile error: 
user defined type not defined
Dim pn11 as Panel.

I then attempted to add the common control properties back in.
They showed as being referenced in the text file.
Succeeded with the three above mentioned ocx's, but I cannot fathom
how to add the Panel property back in.

When I try to run the project I get error message saying
cant add Panels - method or data member not found.

The various Frm logs are showing messages
Cannot load control sbar (name of form) ; license not found
and 
Line 122: Class MSComDlg.CommonDialog of control dlgCommonDialog was
not a loaded control class.
Line 125: The property name _ExtentX in dlgCommonDialog is invalid.
Line 126: The property name _ExtentY in dlgCommonDialog is invalid.
Line 127: The property name _Version in dlgCommonDialog is invalid.
etc

In the project available  references I have:
Visual Basic For Applications
Visual Basic runtime objects and proceedures
OLE Automation
Microsoft Windows Common Copntrols 5.0
Microsoft FlexGrid Control 5.0
All ticked, and many others which do not seem to me to be applicable.

I may not have told you of all the error messages, but have
endeavoured to give a representation of the applicable ones.

I am wondering if we can somehow enable the Panel property whether
this will finally fix the loading and running problems.

I am becoming more confused fiddling with things that I do not fully
understand, hope this all makes sense.
