We were using your TeeChart6.ocx in our projects developed in VS2005 VC++.

Though teechart is working fine in 32 bit systems its not supported in 64bit systems.

Searching in your forums found the below link.

And it states that we need to use Update utility, but its asking for .dsw files instead of .vcproj.

Please give us the complete step-by-step procedure to support 64bit systems aswell.

We have even purchased the latest TeeChart2012 to support 64bit systems.

TeeChart ActiveX 6 dates around 2006. It doesn't support 64bit because TeeChart ActiveX is a wrapper from the VCL version so it's compiled with the Delphi compiler. And the first Delphi compiler for 64bits was published on September 2011 (RAD XE2) so the first TeeChart ActiveX supporting 64bits was a bit later, v2012.0.0.1.

The utility mentioned in that thread is to update the references to TeeChart in a VC++ project; updating the GUIDs of the TeeChart components found in the project files.
This utility doesn't change anything from 32bit to 64bit. To move you application to 64bits, you just need the 64bit version of the ocx registered in the system and build the application with a 64bit compiler.

This should include both 32bit and 64bit versions of the ocx. Don't you see a folder named "64bit files" in the installation?
