I have a class project in Visual studio using C#. When I try to add reference to MSComctlLib (Microsoft Windows Common Control 6.0 (SP6)) I get following message:

"a reference to Microsoft Windows Common Control 6.0 (SP6) can not be added"

I can add other versions of "Microsoft Windows Common Control" but not this one.

Does anyone know why.

Thank you for your help in advance.

It seems you need to re-register a type library to get rid of the issue. You might want to follow the directions in below link:

Visual Studio 6 Windows Common Controls 6.0 (sp6) Windows 7, 64 bit
