I know we have a client with OCX's from 1997 that work on 2003 without SP1,
you might try it on a system without SP1. Also, if you can identify the
missing DLL's you may be able to copy them from an older system.
Another thing to consider is locating an old installer, sometimes they
include runtime files that are required in addition to the OCX files.

Subject: [THIN] OT: can't register some OCX's on 2003 Server
I have some in house codec apps that use a variety of OCX's, some of them
very old (one back from 99). All of them have worked on everything from 98
through XP SP2, but it appears many of these OCX's won't register on 2003
Server SP1. They get a standard LoadLibrary error, which from my research
indicates that some DLL's that the OCX needs to register itself are not
installed on the system, which seems valid.
The likelihood of these custom apps being updated is small, and some of
these OCX's are so old the companies don't exist. So I'm not sure how I go
about getting these working, any thoughts?
