Old VB5 project with Active X control on Win7 64: exe runs, source code is not loaded

Hi everyone!

I'm asking for your help because I have a problem with my old projects in VB5.

Some of them (the ones without external ocx controls) are loaded and compiled perfectly even in my new computer system (Windows 7, 64 bit).

The ones that do have one or more ocx controls in them (for example NTGraph 2D) behave strangely:
- The old .exe file I compiled on my old computer also runs on the new one
- If I try to open the source code (.vbp file), I get the error message: 'My App Path/MyActiveX.ocx' could not be loaded - Continue loading project?

If I click yes, then when I either run or compile, I get errors on all the methods and properties of the objects defined by the Active X.

Is there a way to fix this? I would like to make a small modification to some projects from 7-8 years ago.

Thanks a lot everyone! Best regards
