Gurus, this one is for you

[VBJammin]

My application uses a distributed component. I've created the component ActiveX DLL, registered it on my Transaction Server, exported it and run the EXE that is generated. When I run my application from the development environment (VB6.0 SP4, NT4.0 SP6), everything works perfectly. The remote object is instantiated and the methods run fine.

I can also run my application successfully in Windows 95, which is on my development machine.

However, when I attempt to run my application on a machine that is not on the same domain as my development box or server box (but can still access the server) I get Error 424 "Object Required".

This error results from the following code:

Dim mail as object
Set mail = CreateObject("MAIL.MAIL_SYS")

Does anyone have any ideas what could be going wrong? What's confusing me is that the error occurs on the line which instantiates the object.

Note: I did run the EXE file created by MTS, so that the remote component gets registered.

Any help would be appreciated

...does the client PC have access, and rights to the email product. Also can it see the directory etc. Just a thought has something similar with an Excel object from a remote server.
