    Error 429: ActiveX cannont create the object.

    This problem has been bugging me for a while now and would love any kind of imput on it.

    Here is the problem:
    I am creating a VB application that connects to QuickBooks using the Quickbooks SDK. It takes orders from a SQL server Database. I am using ADO to connect to the DB. Below is the code to do this.

    References for project:
    Visual Basic For Applications
    Visual Basic runtime objects and procedures
    Visual Basic objects and procedures
    Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.5 Library
    gbFC1 1.1 Type Library

    Components for project:
    Microsoft ADO Data Control 6.0 (SP4) (OLEDB)


    Private DB As adodb.Connection
    Private RS As New adodb.Recordset

    Set DB = New adodb.Connection

    DB.Open "Driver={SQL Server};" & _
    "server=IP_Address;" & _
    "Address=IP_Address,1433;" & _
    "Network=DBMSSOCN;" & _
    "database=DB_name;" & _
    "Uid=SQL_UID;" & _
    "Pwd=SQL_Pwd;"

    MySQL = "Select * FROM Table_Name where QuickBooks = 0"

    RS.Open MySQL, DB, adOpenStatic, adLockOptimistic, dCmdText


    I am only using the "Public Sub Main()" funtion. When the user clicks on the App.exe the file will run and display results, no user interacation is being used.


    I am using the VB Package and Deployment wizard to create the setup.exe package. When I create it and run the setup.exe file on the machine the application was created on it installs without a problem and the app.exe runs error free. But when I run the setup.exe on another computer, the install goes fine but when I run the app.exe I always get the error "ActiveX component can't create object".

    Please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!

    Thanks beforehand.

    Well it looks to me as though the target computer is missing a required DLL. Make a DEP file for your exe and see exactly what dependencies are needed and amke sure they are all added in the setup package.
