Custom action - IFBCustomAction is not found

 Hi

I have created a COM DLL which used to do custom action (Implement IFBCustomAction) in FB5. Recently, we tried to migrate FB to another machine, and face problem to rebuild my COM DLL. It complaint interface IFBCustomAction is not found. I tried to use oleviewer to check FB50CustomActionInterfaces.tlb but didn't got this interface.

Any ideas? Last time it is working, forgotten what to do.

Please advice.

Thank you

Is FB5 installed on the machine you are rebuilding your dll? The FB50CustomActionInterfaces.tlb is installed in FinalBuilder 5\ActionDefs . It shoulkd be registered by the installer. You didn’t mention which development environment you are using so it’s difficult to provide any more detailed help. I should also point out that with FB6 and 7, we no longer allow new COM based actions (you cannot create them but can still edit them in Action studio). I would highly recommend rewriting the actions using script or a .net language.
