Received an error message stating comdlg32.ocx was not registered or missing. Tried to download the service pack 6 but apparently I don't have visual basic 6. Help

    As you have already seen, vb 6.0 SP6 will not install on a system that doesn't already have the VB6 product installed. VB 6.0 has never been a free download. It is available with a paid subscription.

    The author of the VB6 executable that requires comdlg32.ocx should have distributed it and any other dependencies along with the application. Perhaps you need to re-install or repair that application on your system.
