Hello

I have a problem adding a drawing control to a windows application I'm building.

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 and I try to add the Visio 2007 drawing control (Microsoft Office Visio 12.0 Drawing Control)

I have added the control to my toolbox without any problems but when I drag it into my form I get the following error:

Failed to create component 'AxHost'. The error message follows:
'System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004055): Error HRESULT E_FAIL has been returned from a call to a COM component.
  at System.Windows.Forms.Design.DocumentDesigner.AxToolboxItem.CreateComponentsCore(IDesignerHost host)
  at System.Drawing.Design.ToolboxItem.CreateComponentsCore(IDesignerHost, host, IDictionary defaultValues)
