Oca files are typelibraries for an ocx. This means that every ocx has an oca. If it doesn't have an oca, it is created when needed, and only if VB recoginzes the control. Actually, it is more then a typelibrary. it is also a cache for the ocx, so if you think you are using the wrong version of the ocx, but you already compiled a new one, try removing the oca. This of course, costs time, cause will must recreate it.
There's a more technical explanation of this at msdn:
