Hi Chris,

thank you for the reply, I was able to recover the original window from the PC with the ole installed and exported it, then I exported "new" window of the target PC, making a diff between the two SRU files, everything is untouched except two things:

the binary descriptor of the ole object is different, and the clicked() event source is missing (note: it was all commented)

I'll paste here the descriptors:

This is the descriptor of the original exported window:

It seems the binary descriptor is changed by the ide if you open the window editor and the ole wasn't installed.

Then, I tried to overwrite the original descriptor over the last one and imported the window on target PC: the window opened with the ole OK, but the clicked() script still missing.

Here is the missing code I recovered from 'old' pc:

event clicked;//
//any val
//longlong v
//string vName
////val = plc.object.ReadVariable('Item_2')
////plc.aboutbox()
//
//val = plc.isconnected()
//sle_item2.text = string(val)
//
//plc.Update()
//
//val = plc.typename
////val = plc.readrawdata("Item_2")
//
//
//
////plc.WriteVariable('Item_2', 2)
//
//vName = 'Item_2'
//val = plc.readvariable(vName)
//
//
//
//v = plc.SerialNumber
//
////val = plc.isconnected()
//
//
//sle_item2.text = string(val)
//
end event

Hi Andrea;

   I suspect that your OLE object's source code is intact. The issue might be that the IDE cannot reconstruct the exact values and render it visually when you open the UO / Window Painter - as the OLE (ActiveX) component may not be properly / fully registered in the registry or GAC of the MS-Windows O/S.
