AADE Filter Design: "ActiveX component can't create obj

[Renan Birck]

Hello,

I'm trying to run "AADE Filter Design", a program used for the design of
electronic filters. It's available for free from
http://www.aade.com/filter32/fdinstall.exe

It installs correctly after I 'winetricks mfc40' and install the VB6
run-time, but it gives the "ActiveX component can't create object"
error when run.

Any ideas? This is Wine 1.1.26 on Arch Linux.

error output from console:

Alright you first need to either copy it from windows or download it from somewhere a filed called Msscript.ocx, then in your terminal type "regsvr32 msscript.ocx", then with wintricks vcrun2005 then winetricks wsh56 once its done it should allow you to enter the program without that crash, if you see the crash again uninstall and reinstall it. I don't know what this program is but It doesn't crash for me with those installed.

Now it works, thanks.

Hi! After some manipulation with 'winetricks', wb6runs etc, i get this:

Runtime Error 429: Activex component can not create the object

It can't be solved at this time (or internet not know it).
But for AADE, simply after 10 (or so) unsuccessful runs, the initial dialog magically disappears and activex error no more exist. Now it work for me.
