HI,

Please run the installation check as per note 1229206 and attach the result to the message.This is typically a front end installation issue May be dhtmled.ocx is not registered on this PC This is a typical front end issue where you have to look at your GUI patch and front end patch.I recommend you deinstalling your frontend installation as follows:

- Remove your frontend via 'START' - 'PROGRAMS' - 'SAP FRONTEND' -

'REMOVE SAP FRONTEND'

- Install the newest frontend and GUI patch and check the installation

again with sapbexc.xla

Please run the front-end checktool SAPBEXC.XLA as per Note 197460 and

ensure there are no errors.
