I am running VB5 and am trying to create the setup file for my app (EXE). I keep running into the following error:

The setup wizard has found a reference to the file
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office\MSACC8.olb. However, no dependency information was available to locate the dependent automation component. If this component needs to be distributed, it must be added manually via the 'Add' button in the ActiveX Server Components Step.

I'm not quite sure which component I need to add to the project. I already have this app up and running, but I recently made changes to it that includes adding a reference to an Access 97 database using the MSACC8.olb file (which the error message is referring to). Any help would be appreciated.
 
That may be because you're not allowed to redistribute Access!
