I'm considering using the VB6 Common Controls Replacement Project controls and would like to see what other's experiences with them are.

Specifically:

What do you need to distribute with them? (I assume just the .OCX file)
Do I need to register the .ocx file or just include in the app directory?
Do these controls depend on any other ocx's? (There is mention, for example in the Progress Bar replacement that it is using COMCTL32.DLL but the .DEP file does not list that DLL.
Are they at least as robust as the controls they replace?
