A college just got Visual Basic Professional installed on his computer. When we try to run a software developed at my company the software starts but then we got an error message that says:

License information for this component not found. You do not have an appropriate license to use this functionality in the design environment.

In the .log file for this frame it states:

Line 1258: Property OleObjectBlob in grdDataGrid2 could not be set.
Line 1258: Cannot load control grdDataGrid2; license not found.

Do I need another licenstype or another version of VB 6.0 to run the software?

It seems that you are using a 3rd party component. It is that component that needs to be installed upon the computer in question to be of use in the design environment. "Well I have it on my computer, why can't I use it?" Well, there is a difference between a developers license and a user license and presently you have a users license on the computer in question, hence the error.

Good Luck
