Developer’s Description

By Microsoft
Update Visual C++ 6.0 to be Y2K compliant.
This is a copy of comctl32.dll that developers are free to ship with their software call directly from their setup routines. Microsoft prohibits shipping comctl32.dll separate from this self-extracting archive. Ensure your installation of Visual C++ 6.0 is Y2K compliant. Install or update your current version of the Common Control DLL (comctl32.dll) to fix year 2000 issues present in the Common Control DLL originally installed by Visual C++ 6.0.
