Grrr..vb5.0/class does not support automation

Greetings all-

Using the setupkit that came with vb5.0, I am trying to make an .exe for distribution. It says that my MSCAL.ocx (dependency) file is out of date. If I leave the mscal.ocx box checked (so mscal is included as a dependency file), then I get an error "The file 'C\Windows\System\$(DLLSelfRegisterE)' could not be registerd because it was not found." when I try to install the program. If uncheck the box so it is not included, then the setup program works well (on my computer), and the vb app. runs as intended.

When I installed the app & ran it on a friend's computer, the following message appeared: " Run-time error '430': Class doesn't support Automation "

I hope that all made sense?! I am not certain if the out-of-date error in the setup program has anything to do with the 430 error? I just want the program to run on another computer!

If anyone can give me some insight as to what the problem might be, I would be truly grateful.

Much thanks in advance!
-Michelle

Most probably, you are having versioning problems. Check the version of the particular file. In case there are different versions of the file on your system, check the one that is being actually used.

You can do a find for that particular file and check the properties of each file.
