    What is giving you this error? Post some code if you can.

    It is a bit of a generic error and we will need more info for a proper answer.

    Bigger Problem

    Well here's the problem:
    This problem does not occur while I am testing it (meaning when I run it with a VB Editor, the error does not come) only after I deploy it.

    A bigger problem is this:
    I don't always get this problem with all the machines I have tried it on. There are 3 to 4 machines where I deployed the program where this problem does not occur. Only 2 machines have this problem (so far).

    This is what I know:
    I know that Automation Errors occurs in classes and objects right?
    My theory is that a 'User Control' that I created is the reason this error occurs. But what I did it is, I did not compile the object as an .OCX, what I did was I included the object as part of the Project so I am assuming this error shouldn't occur. And again I go back to the question why it only happens in isolated cases and not always? Could it be compatibility issues with the OS or the machine?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.
