    [RESOLVED]ActiveX Runtime Error 429

    I have just compiled my program and installed it on a different computer, and then when i do something that requires the ActiveX component then i receive a error saying: "The ActiveX component could not be created"....

    Any ideas of how to fix this?

    1) Did you use the P&D wizard to install this?

    2) Can you goto Start>run & enter this line:

    Regsvr32 "C:\Path\MyControl.ocx"

    Does this fix the problem?

    The package and deployment wizard which comes with VB...

    You'll find it under the start menu in a subfolder beneath where vb appears (Microsoft viual studio I think the folder's called).

    This creates an install package which makes sure your app has all the neccessary files it needs when it runs on another machine & it also automatically registers any dll or ocx files which your project might need to have included with it.
