    I've found in the past that installing the lastest version of MDAC will solve the problem

    The error means that you use an .ocx or .dll which is not (correctly) installed on the machine.

    The help for this error (online version - as found from the link in the FAQ article What does this error mean, and how do I fix it?) explains the most common causes.

    Frans C is almost certainly right about the cause, as it is by far the most common one.

    If the code works on your computer but not on another, Randem's answer is what you need.

    If you are getting the error on your computer, you either don't have the item installed on your computer, or your code is not correct... but we can't tell without more details from you.
