Could not instantiate ActiveX control (General questions)

by sucrerey, Wednesday, January 19, 2005, 21:18 (7246 days ago)

Hey folks, hope I can get some help here. I have written a multi-threaded windows forms application that uses the AxwodSFTPLib.AxwodSFTP object. Once I got the form working the way I wanted I tried to turn it into a service that is able to interact with the desktop. It compiles fine, and there are no hinks when it tries to install as a service. However, the moment I try to start the service, the form containing the SFTP component will not initialize and I get the following error:

Could not instantiate ActiveX control {(the ActiveX guid)} because the current thread is not in a single-threaded apartment.

Any help is appreciated,
Ben ROberts
