Run-time error '429': ActiveX component can't create object

Please help me.

Answer 1

The most likely cause is a missing or unregistered/corrupt ActiveX control, see this link. Does your application have an installation program you should have run? Otherwise you'll have to look through the project dependencies and try and guess to see what is missing if the error context doesn't give any clue.
