    That error means that you are trying to initialize an Object whose corresponding DLL file is either missing or not registered on the target system.

    To troubleshoot you should be checking the system whether it has all the referenced DLLs installed. And if you are using Late Binding then PDW will not ship the DLL file with the setup package.

    So make sure that the DLLs that you are using in your project are all installed and registered on the users' system.

    Also if you can post the code where exactly this error is coming the it would be easier to pinpoint which DLL is missng. Check you DIM statements.
    Use [code] source code here[/code] tags when you post source code.

    Unhappy Re: ActiveX Component can't Create Object "error"

    Hey Again, thanks for your reply however, the user is having that error while installing the software. So I don't think my code has anything to do with it.
    I thought that error got something to do with "the Package and deployment wizard".
