The error 0x80040154 is indeed REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG, meaning the class "VBScript", or CLSID {B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8}, is not available on your computer.

Can you search the registry (Regedit.exe) for the string {B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} ? You should see the following with the node "InprocServer32" having the value of "C:\WINDOWS\System32\VBSCRIPT.DLL" (or your Windows directory if different).

Are you the administrator on your computer? I am asking because the error 80040154 may be returned because of a "permission denied".

Also, have you installed special COM or COM+ components?

When you double-click on an XML file, do you get the "warning about Active Content"? If so, can you check the option to allow active content on My Computer.

I'm not sure what that it, so probably not?

Not anymore; but when I used Internet Explorer, I used to until I enabled it from Internet Options.

Can you search the registry (Regedit.exe) for the string {B54F3741-5B07-11CF-A4B0-00AA004A55E8} ?
I do seem to be missing this key in my registry. Perhaps that is the question. I just ran a test right now, I created a simple .vbs file to see it it would work. I wrote
msgbox "hi"

and then saved it as a .vbs and tried to run it, at first I got a allow/block dialog from Microsoft AntiSpyware and then when I clicked allow, I got the following error message:
Can't find script engine "VBScript" for script..


Now what do I do?

This is good news. It appear the file VBScript.DLL has never been registered (or unegistered by some third paty application). Some "Virus Cleanup" software may unregister this DLL because viruses love to run VBScripts. It is good news because I prefer solving this problem instead of hunting down a permission denied / security issue.

Can you try locating this file in your c:\Windows\System32\ directory (or anywhere on your computer)? Every installation of Windows should have this file, unless it has been deleted.

Great. This even better. Using a Command Prompt or the Run Command (Start -> Run), type the following:
regsvr32 c:\Windows\System32\VBScript.dll

Or replace "c:\Windows\System32\VBScript.dll" by the path where you found the file VBScript.dll.

Great.
Reading file 'C:\Documents and Settings\Rudy Klein\Desktop\Klein Family Genealogical Webpage\family.ged'...
Converting ANSEL to ANSI / MBCS
Importing 'Gedcom' document using Code Page 1252 known as 'Western European/US (Windows)'
Validating data...

I would recommend to import the the .ged file into a .gno file first, so you will be able to add a title and a description to your report. If you generate a report on a GenoPro document, the report generator will display an extra window to add a title to your family tree.

Hopefully you will be last one experiencing this problem with GenoPro. After thinking about the issue, I wrote some code to locate the "VBScript.dll" and automatically register the library if present. I did the same for the JavaScript/JScript DLL.
