I have created a VB program on my machine running Win98, when I try to install it on Win95 or WinNT it does not work. I get some type of &quot;Can not create ActiveX component&quot; error. <br><br>Thanks in Advance,<br>Leaf

Either a component has not gotten registered,&nbsp;&nbsp;or your application requires a component that's not installed on the other computer. <p>nick bulka<br><a href=mailto:nick@bulka.com>nick@bulka.com</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Nickbulka,<br><br><br>How can you tell what files are not registered or what files are not being installed. The only components that I have are, Status Bar, Toolbar and Winsock control.<br><br><br>thanks,<br>Leaf<br>

You might try Project / Properties and check the &quot;Upgrade ActiveX Controls&quot; option.<br><br>Just a thought. Sometimes it works.<br> <p> <br><a href=mailto: > </a><br><a href= temporary Vorpalcom home page</a><br>Send me suggestions or comments on my current software project.

Solution Posted!<br><br>I figured out what part of my VB code was generating the error &quot;429&quot; -<br><br>Set fso = CreateObject(&quot;Scripting.FileSystemObject&quot;)<br><br>I searched my Windows 98 &quot;regedit&quot; for &quot;FileSystemObject&quot; and under CLSID there was an entry. I checked the DLL that was in the InProcServer32 entry &quot;SCRRUN.DLL&quot; and then I ran the Package and Deployment again for my project and attached this file to the install. When I installed the program on Windows 95 and on Windows NT. It worked with no problems.<br><br>Life only gets better!<br><br>rgds,<br><br>Leaf

Yes, Windows NT and Windows 95 do not ship with support for Windows Scripting.&nbsp;&nbsp;There are probably other DLLs needed for a complete set, so you ought to cruise over to msdn.microsoft.com and see if there is a distribution cab file set available from them.<br><br>Chip H.<br>
