I'm not sure about Crystal but the others should be on your VB CD. iirc,
in a folder called "unsupported controls" or something similar. Insert
the CD and search for any of those ocx's. They should all be in the same
folder, along with their license file.

That can be caused by a couple of things. Missing ocx or invalid oca
files to list a couple. Start a new project and try dropping those controls.

That's probably due to the "not a loaded control" errors. VB is
converting those missing controls into pictureboxes so all kinds of bad
things happen. Hopefully, you have a good backup of that project.

Most of the code should work. VB syntax is generally backward
compatible. The problem is the controls. Even though VB tries to update
them for you, the ocx versions usually have, at least slightly,
different syntax.
