XP SP2 - should I install it now?

[lankan_man]

I still get an error saying "Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment" when I run it. Same problem using "control userpasswords" from the Run... dialog. The only thing that makes it work is using "control userpasswords1", but that gives an old style dialog, not the XP skinned one but in that the scroll bar doesn't work.

Wrong number of arguments or invalid property assignment (Scripting)

Wrong number of arguments (Error 450)

Those sounded like VB code probs for me..... wierd....

Hi guys - thanks again for your help. What a friendly forum this is!

I tried your suggestion Reverend but it didn't work unfortunately.

Yes, lankan_man, from my research on this before, these are VB script type errors. I don't know why this should be.

Anyway, your interest renewed my vigour to try and get this sorted and I turned up a post on this issue in another forum where someone suggested the following:

Open your notepad or word processor and copy and paste the following:
regsvr32 jscript.dll
regsvr32 nusrmgr.cpl
regsvr32 /i mshtml.dll
regsvr32 themeui.dll
regsvr32 Vbscript.dll

This will re-register the above dll's etc in the registry. Save this file as "User Acct Fix.cmd" on your desktop to easily find it. Click on "User Acct Fix.cmd" on your desktop to run the program. Now see if now the User accounts are visible.

Well - this fixed it - fantastic. I've trawled the net a few times on this one and although I have found various posts on the problem, none of the suggestions worked. I had never spotted this solution before though.

So, I hope this will also help someone else who stumbles across this answer.

Thanks for your inspiration guys!
