When I try to use the control demo egrid in a firefly project in windows server 2003, Firefly closes without warning.
I replaced the files egrid32pro.inc egrid32pro.dll and with eGrid distribution we buy, now when I try to place the egrid control on the project I get a message saying that the properties of controls are not properly defined. This happens on Windows 2003 server. But in windows xp and windows 7 work properly.
Please I need help because programs do not work on any installation of windows server.
Egrid DLL version : 3.34.07.0
EGRID_INCLUDE_VERSION : 33406
In addition to replacing the INC and the DLL files, you also need to get the matching CTL file, which defines the properties as a firefly control.
It seems like you got stucked in version 3.34.07... which could lead to problems when used with the latest EGRID32 CTL file. Get the latest DLL and INC for Egrid32 and you should be all set to go.

Elias, Thanks for the reply.
How I can get the latest version of eGrid?. This product you bought it from you, but I think it now has another owner.
Hi Marco,
The new owner is Brian Chirgwin, you can contact him at egridpro.com.
Best regards,
Marc
Thank's.
I have the latest version of eGrid (3.62). However, the ctl file says version 3.22. From where I can get the ctl file for the latest version of eGrid (3.62)?.
Try the attached ctl and let me know if it works or if you have issues.
Remove the demo version of EGRID to avoid issues.
Also remove the demo SIGrid. I have found this caused some issues as well.
Thanks Brian. I have tested Egrid v.3.62 with file CTL and not working properly in Windows Server 2003. As you told me, when I delete the Sigrid demo, it works well.
If I use the demo Egrid32 control, it works well, even when including the Sigrid.
I have in my project a lot of windows which include the SIGrid control and other windows where the eGrid included, it would be enough work to eliminate the Sigrid project.
The EGrid Control Demo works on windows 2003 server with the Sigrid Control
I'm glad to hear the new file works at least to some extent.
I've never looked into SIGrid demo and why an error was caused. Since I never used SIGrid demo I just removed it to avoid the problem.
I've looked at the two ctl files, egrid32 and SIGRID. I am not sure if the problem is in the EGrid.ctl and/or SIGrid.ctl file, or elsewhere. I do know in the past I removed EGrid demo and pro and kept SIGrid and still had an issue with it. So I think there is an issue in the ctl file there as well.
I did notice the SIGrid ctl file does have the following two lines under the [CONTROL] section
property_count=39
message_count=38
Try adding the above lines to the SIGrid ctl and see if the issue is resolved.
Paul might also have some other ideas since he created the ctl format.
The property_count and message_count lines no longer have any affect. They can be omitted.
