    Unable to run files having activeX control

    When I create an application in VB having some control (updown, calendar etc.), the created exe run on my system successfully but when I try to run the same application in other system in which VB is not installed. It gives me an error regarding some ocx. Then I have to copy the required OCXs file in C:/winnt/system32 folder and then that exe runs.

    Can I do something so that I dont have to copy these files in other system.

    Thanx in advance.

    create an installer package.

    use P&D Wizard (under the VB menu), Visual Studio Installer, InnoSetup, or one of the many others.
