Marc,

Thanks for the info but this sounds absurd.

I have imported an ActiveX in the Delphi IDE.

Now if I start a new blank project and place this ActiveX on its form 
and run it (by pressing F9) it runs and the ActiveX behaves as documented.

But when I use this ActiveX in an existing project I keep getting this 
message.

What must be the problem?

Can you give me code snipper as to how to call CoInitialize and 
CoUnInitialize?

TIA
