Still a lot of COM controls are missing when you select "choose items" in Vista. Isn't there another solution or why is it? Thanks, ralpugan

I read someting about on MSDN forums and a guy said that the turning UAC on may have helped. And voila! Turning UAC on worked for now. Missing COM controls came back!. But i want to keep UAC off, so because of this annoying Vista thing i'm really amazed. ralpugan
