Anthony,
Thanks for creating this, I have a lot of applications for this myself and I'm sure that others have many more. I am very excited to work with it.

All,
I would suggest that if anybody makes any improvements to this or if anybody has an example of a model created with this that they use this thread as the place to post those.

Brandon

I primarily use QUEST but am slowly learning how to use FlexSim, and the ability to control FS with VB or VBA should swing me over to using FS much more often.

Great job! I would like to see this more fully supported, and I think this would be a great feature to add.

This error typically comes from the fact that you are executing the reg file in a non-administrator role. In Vista it can be a real bugger to get around it.

I had to execute the command prompt as administrator and then execute the reg file in the command prompt.

Maybe someone else will have an easier method.

I use an administrator account.
I use XP SP3, Flexsim 4.5, .Net framework 1.1sp1. Shall I update to .net framework 3.5? Or This COM object is only for Flexsim 4.32?
