How do you fix the runtime (Error 429)

When I compiled my VB Application, I get the folowing error on some computers.

ActiveX component can't create object or return reference to this object (Error 429).

Under the VB help it explains the error as follows: If the attempt to instantiate is the result of a CreateObject or GetObject call, the object must find the key. In this case, it may search the system registry or look for a special file that it creates when it is installed, for example, one with the extension .lic. If the key can't be found, the object can't be instantiated. If an end user has improperly set up the object's application, inadvertently deleted a necessary file, or changed the system registry, the object may not be able to find its key. If the key can't be found, the object can't be instantiated. In this case, the instantiation may work on the developer's system, but not on the user's system. It may be necessary for the user to reinstall the licensed object.


I'm not sure what I have to reinstall. Does anyone know?


Thanks for any response!

How are you installing your app? Are you using the Setup or Package and Deployment Wizards?

Take a look at your project references and components and note the files that they use(dlls and ocxs). Make sure that all these files are on the computer that your having problems with.
