Visual Basic :: Please Help On "Can't Create ActiveX Component" Error.

"Run-time Error '429' ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
Hello,

I developed my app on a laptop with Windows XP Home. It runs fine. On an earlier version, it ran fine when I installed in on my Windows 2000 desktop. Now, for some reason I get a "Run-time error '429' ActiveX component can't create object" message (see attached image).

I am not using a database. I am using a dll and am registering it using INNO 5 installer. I have manually registered it also, but still get the same Run-time error.

Inno line to register....

Source: "C:Documents and SettingsuserDesktopInstallTools.dll"; DestDir: "{sys}"; Flags: restartreplace sharedfile regserver

The only thing I can remember changing is that I added a picture to my "About" form.

Thoughts?

Run-time Error 429 "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
Hi all,

I made a connection to Rational Rose dll in visual basic. In my computer everything works but if I use package&deployment wizard to make run the .exe in another computer it appears the runtime error 429, ActiveX component can't create object?

In target machine I have already installed visual basic runtime environment.

Are there any dll I have to add to the target machine besides dll that have been added by package&deployment wizard?

Sorry for my poor english.

Runtime Error: 429 "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
This error is driving me insane.

I ran the fix from msdn, no luck.

My programs run perfect on my computer, and if i send my friend the source, he can run it fine in vb.

Problem is, when i compile them, the only one who can run them, is me!

I thought it had to do with the activex controls microsoft stated in the msdn article.. so deleted every reference to them in my project, no luck.

I started over, Compiling step by step, figuring out whats wrong...

I didn't get passed step 1!

Ok now onto my problem...

I have a Project group, with a standard exe, and a activex dll.
In the dll i have a class file, so i can open up forms, when the exe tells the class to open it, it gives a runtime 429 error, saying "activex compontent can't create object" what does that mean, and how can i fix it?

"Runtime Error-429 ActiveX Component Can't Create Object". For COM+ Comp. On Win2003
Hi There!

Could anybody please help regarding the below issue.

We had a COM+ component deployed on Windows 2000/NT machine it was working fine, I mean when it was being invoked from other machines it was creating object and was serving the purpose.

Recently as an upgrade we moved all the COM+ component from Windows 2000/NT to WINDOWS 2003 and now when we are trying to invoke that component its throwing "Runtime Error-429 ActiveX Component can't create Object".

Client side machines are running Windows XP with SP2, COM+ component was created as a server application. I doubt that it may be because of Windows 2003 security issue but not sure or am I missing something while building that component.

Please help or provide your suggestions.

Thanks in advance.

CreateObject("Outlook.Application") - Error 429 ActiveX Component Can't Create Object
I'm trying to learn how to program with Outlook Express 6 using Visual Basic 5. The problem is with having these couple lines of code:

Option Explicit

Dim Outlook As Object

Sub Main()

Set Outlook = CreateObject("Outlook.Application")

End Sub

I get a Runtime Error 429: ActiveX Component Can't Create Object. Of course obviously my Outlook Express works fine. I've done some heavy duty research on how to solve this problem looking literally everywhere on the internet. Registering the MSIMN.EXE using DOS was one of the solutions. It didn't work. The registry looks like it might be the solution. Over in this key path (HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSID{0006F03A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}) where Outlook Express is supposed to be located, I noticed it was empty! It is supposed to have InprocHandler32, InprocServer32, LocalServer32, ProgID, Typelib, and VersionIndependentProgID. Both ProgID and VersionIndependentProgID are supposed to have "Outlook.Application" as a string value (REG_SZ) which is required for scripting when you want ActiveX components to create the object for you. I can try typing the values by hand which probably won't work but is there anything else I can use to automatically fill these registry values in without screwing up Outlook Express 6? Possibly a program that registers it and fills in the registry keys for me?

Also, if you don't have the exact solution, I would at least like to know what value you have under HKEY_CLASSES_ROOTCLSID{0006F03A-0000-0000-C000-000000000046}InprocServer32 since the other computer in my house (which isn't mine) has a value of some dll from McAfee, and McAfee is what I don't have.

"ActiveX Component Can't Create Object" Error
People that install my program all get this "ActiveX component can't create object" error. I am pretty sure it's caused by the reference "Microsoft Ooutlook 10.0 object library" (msoutl.olb).

Do I need a liscense or something to distribute this? How can I fix the error?

Thanks

"ActiveX Component Can't Create Object" Error
I am trying to access Outlook Express's address book with some code I found on one of the forums here. The CreateObject function in that code however produces a "ActiveX component can't create object" error (error code 429) when executed.

When I try my own code I get the same error. The code:

Code:
Dim Outlook As Object
Set Outlook = CreateObject("outlook.application")

Which files need to be installed and which version of Outlook Express do I need? (I am using Outlook Express 6) Also, I can't find a reference to outlook.application in the registry which as I understand must be some where in the registry for CreateObject to work. Which files if any do I need to register and how?

BTW:
I searched the internet and the forums here before posting.
And:
When I replace "outlook.application" with "excel.application" for example, just to test the CreateObject function I get no errors.

The code I found on these forums can be found in this thread: http://vbforums.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=292503

Error 429 "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object" ???
Hope someone can help - this is doing my head in!

(Dev Env: Win98 VB6.0 SP3)

Ok - I've got an app that works fine on the win98 development machine. When installing on win95 test machine it works ok until suddenly it throws up this Error 429 "ActiveX Component Can't Creat Object"

I'm really new at this and don't know how to debug it... From what I know:

It's the msInet control that's doing it, BUT - it's already successfully executed a couple of commands:

1. "CD /" (to test the ftp connection)
2. "CD /website/test/" (to change to the required directory to transfer to)

The one that fails is a PUT command...??

PLEASE help - I've got a few other bugs in the software which I expected, but this is the one that is really stumping me!

Cheers all,

"ActiveX Component Can Not Create Object" Error
Hi, all...
I have completed my project and used P&D Wizard to create a setup.exe package of the program.

I tried to install the application in other PCs and meet some problems. All the PCs i have tried to installed the application are using Win2000, i also developed the tool in Win2000.

The error message is "ActiveX component can not create the object" in the procedure of registering DLLs during installation of the application.

I only met this problem in some PCs not all of them. However all the PCs are using Win2000.

My program is quiet simple, i added some new components such as CommonDialog box, progressing bar. Since i need to generate a word document, so added a new reference Microsoft Word 9.0 object library. And some simple APIs also used in my program.

Any idea on this ???

Sami.

Big Problem With "activeX Component Cant Create Object" #429
Hi Guys

Im acutaly working on a Mediacenter-Application. It always ran on all my computers, till i did include a new configfile-structure. On my work-pc everything works fine. But on my Notebook the Error 429 "ActiveX Component cant create object" appears. So i switched back to the old configfile structure. The Error seems to occur directly on startup of the software, so i can only guess where the problem is. The only OCX I use is mci32.ocx. For testing purposes is removed the activex components completely but the error still happens. Im going to drive crazy. Its a really BIG program. I work for it nearly a year. I have been working on this error for days, read every thread on this topic, but nothing could help me.
Here some Details...

I think the error must happen in one of these 2 Functions

Declare Function GetPrivateProfileString Lib "Kernel32" Alias "GetPrivateProfileStringA" (ByVal lpApplicationName As String, ByVal lpKeyName As Any, ByVal lpDefault As String, ByVal lpReturnedString As String, ByVal nSize As Integer, ByVal lpFileName As String) As Integer

Function Getini(ByVal INIFile As String, ByVal Section As String, ByVal Key As String)

Dim RetVal As String, Worked As Integer
RetVal = String$(255, 0)
Worked = GetPrivateProfileString(Section, Key, "", RetVal, Len(RetVal), INIFile)

If Worked = 0 Then
Getini = ""
Else
Getini = Left(RetVal, InStr(RetVal, Chr(0)) - 1)
End If

End Function

OR HERE:

Public Function GetWinDirectory() As String
Temp = Environ("windir")
If Right(Temp, 1) = "" Then Temp = Left(Temp, Len(Temp) - 1)
GetWinDirectory = Temp
End Function

This is the first part of the Form_Load sub. Here has to be the error!

Randomize Online = True
A = Right(Now, 8)
lastkey = Int(Right(A, 2)) + (Int(Mid(A, 4, 2)) * 60) + (Int(Left(A, 2)) * 60 * 60)
Themestatus = 1
Dim mixstat As Long
Mutestat = False
mixstat = OpenMixer(0)
Indizierung = False
tastdruck = False
ButtCH = True
WindowsDir = GetWinDirectory
IniPath = WindowsDir + "SARSMediacenter.ini"
'Lese Haupteinstellungen
progpath = Getini(IniPath, "Main", "Programmverzeichniss")

After the last line, no more code is executed and the error occurs.

Please Help me.

Thx Max

"ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
I'm using AutoCAD with the software I'm writing in VB 6.0, and I need to use late binding because I don't know what version of Autocad will be on the user's computer. (When us reference the Autocad type library, you have to specify version). The trouble is I get the error "ActiveX component can't create object" Error #429 when I try to run the software on another computer with the same version of Autocad (2004) using late binding. The strange thing is, it works fine on this computer... I need this software to work problem-free when it is installed on another computer with Autocad.

Thanks, any help is welcome

Use COM Object From Excel VBA - Made In .NET "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
I have been unsuccessful at deploying a .NET project I created for Excel (VBA). I have this thread open in the VBA section. I figure I would try it in a higher traffic area of the site.

Use COM Object From Excel VBA - Made In .NET "ActiveX Component Can't Create Object"
I am going to outline the steps I go through to produce the problem. Hopefully this will help you understand the problem better.

I have created a simple COM DLL in .NET by using the COM class template and by setting output to a type library (DLL). All the object does is return a string value. At this point I have not checked the option to register for COM interop in Visual Studio.

So I go into Excel (where I want to use the object). Go to VB Editor and Tools -> References and to Add Reference. I browse until I find the in directory of the project. Select the .dll file outputted by the program. Then click open -> I get the message "Can't add reference to the specified file." So here is my first question: Why not?

So then I go to my project in Visual Studio. Highlight the project -> click properties ->go to Build -> and check "Register for COM interop" -> then I rebuild my solution. After this build there is another file in the in directory with the same name as the .dll but has the extension .tlb (Type Library).

So I go back into Excel. Go to VB Editor -> Tools -> References and to Add Reference. I browse until I find the in directory of the project. This time however I select the .tlb file outputted by the program. Then click open -> I don’t get an error message so this is good. So here is my second question: Why does the .tlb work and not the .dll at this point?

Now after this step. I create the object in VBA code. Compile and run the macro and sure enough it returns the string and puts in the right cell. Great! But wait. Now many more people need this object to work with Excel.

So I copy the Excel Workbook and everything in the in directory from my project to another person’s computer. Then I open the Excel workbook -> then to VB Editor -> References to double check the path to the .tlb file -> (then compile and save for peace of mind). But here is the big problem... when I run the macro on another person's computer I get the message "ActiveX component can't create object." And I get this at the line where I say: Set testObj = New Object.

My ideas... could it be that I am an Admin on my PC but not the other? If so, how do I get around this. Or is Visual Studio doing an extra step in the compile/build process that I’m not replicating on the other PC? Does it need to be an global assembly?

Also, .NET is installed on the other PC and I have tried to register the .DLL, but this is unsuccessful as well? I guess that is another question: why?

If someone could help me out here I would be very grateful. I have been trying to figure out a solution for a long time. I just don’t understand why everything works fine on my PC but won't run on another.

Thanks for being patient.

Vb6 Com+ Object Runs Once Then Errors With "activex Component Can't Create Object"
I have a vb6 com object that will run once successfully, then error with "activex component can't create object" on the call to the com object (see below, GetAppt.GetHRoomsAppointments). the com object (activex.dll) runs in com+ on a win2003 server. The project is set to run unattended, retain in memory, apartment threaded.

The com reads room numbers from oracle 9.2 client (via ado), then reads from outlook 2003 the rooms' appointments (cdo 1.21, outlook 11.0 object library references), and then writes the appointments back out to oracle (via ado). I have it running under com+ (in component services) using an administrator id (as identity) and activation as Server Application. I call the com object from a vb6 .exe.

If I run the code in vb6 debug mode, it works successfully on multiple runs. But once I compile into a .dll, add it to com+, and call from an .exe, it runs once. If I reboot the server, it will run successfully once. I was thinking I was leaving an object open but can not find it. I am doing close on recordsets, ado connections, and setting them to nothing.

How the code works is for each room, it will read from outlook, open an oracle recordset, add to the recordset, and then close the recordset.

Any ideas? I can send .dll code if need be. the .exe is below.
Is there a way to programmatically clean out the com object in the .exe besides setting it to Nothing?

Option Explicit
Sub Main()
Dim GetAppt As Object

Set GetAppt = New GetHRoomsAppts.clsGetHRoomsAppts
GetAppt.ProvID = "1234"
GetAppt.ProvName = "John Doe"
GetAppt.MailBoxServer = "xxx.abc.com"
GetAppt.eduDataBase = "ora.path.com"
GetAppt.apptFolderDir = "Public Folders/All Public Folders/Dept/SUN/Calendars/"
GetAppt.apptTableDir = "fileLoc.Appts"

Need Help With Using "ActiveSkin" (ActiveX Component)
Does anyone know how to use ActiveSkin?

I'm using ActiveSkin (4.3) and have successfully managed to import it as an ActiveX object. I've also managed to drag an instance of it onto my Form1, and have selected the type of skin I'm trying to use. But when I run the form nothing happens ... the form remains unchanged.

I know I need to paste some kind of code onto the form to make it work, but don't know what code to use. I've tried reading the HelpGuide that comes with the product but don't understand it ... it's not very noob-friendly. I've also tried googling for HelpGuides on ActiveSkin but can't find anything useful.

Does anyone know how to use this component properly? All I'm trying to do is give my form a 'MacOSX' type of look.

"Run-time Error 424 - Object Required" Error When Upgrading A Activex Control

If you delete the object from the vbp file and reopens the program and add the component again it'll work just fine.. But as soon as I try to upgrade this error will occur when trying to see the form of the new project using the upgraded activex control. The upgrade procedure seems to work fine though and the error occurs, as I said, only when I try to see the form of the project.

"Too Many Files" Error In COM+ Component
I'm trying to solve an intermittent problem with a VB6 COM+ component running on a Windows 2003 Server. The component is called from an ASP page, opens a file for read as binary, reads the contents of the file, then returns the binary stream to the ASP page. Occasionally the user gets a "Too Many Files" error. This component was previously installed in MTS on NT4 and didn't have this problem.

While monitoring the component in the Task Manager, I can see the number of "Handles" shoot-up to about 1100 and that's when the error is returned. After a short while, the number of Handles drops back and everythings fine.

I'm considering replacing the "File Open" method of accessing the file to an "ADO Stream" method, but I'm not convinced this will help. I can't find any information on this at Microsoft's site. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks in advance!

ActiveX Control - "could Not Be Loaded" Error
Hi,

I have been developing an ActiveX control and testing it with a standalone project. Up until yesterday, the second project would update the control at load and run properly.

Sometime yesterday I made a change which now causes the following message when opening the test project: " could not be loaded--Continue Loading Project.

The form error log contents are:
Line 13: Class QSControl.QuickSearch of control ctlQS was not a loaded control class.

If I put the two projects into a group, everything runs fine. I am relatively new to VB ActiveX programming so I don't know how to diagnose the problem.

Any ideas what might be causing the error? (Unfortunately, I don't have a copy of the project prior to the message so I can't compare the two for changes).

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Easy Way To Create "AA" "BA" "CA"... From A Number?
Hello All,

Looking for an easy way to convert the number 27 into column AA, 52 int "AZ" etc. (I think thats right! for 52 ...)

Or, is there anyway I just use (3,3) for "C3"?

Example:
appExcel.Range( ??? ).Value = SomeDataInArray

This has GOT to be easy, I just can't find reference, and I didn't want to hard code it if I don't have to.

Hi All

I have recently built a application that reads outlook emails and
extracts email addresses from the body of the mail.

My Problem:

The application works fine on my machine "windows me" but when i run it on a 95 or 98 I get the error:

"Runtime error 429, Axtivex component can't create object"

I can find load's of references to it in MSDN but none that seem to be specific to my problem.

Here is the code where the problem appears:

Set objNameSpace = objOutlook.GetNamespace("MAPI")
MsgBox "After set object" I do not get as far as this message

I hope someone can help

"Type Mismatch"/"Invalid Qualifier" Error
Hi all

Am just using VB6 for the first time. Am connecting to a SQL Server 2000 database. What i am trying to do is simple select a single cell from the database into a string variable and then hold onto that variable for as long as i need it. The problem is that when i go to put the value into the variable i get a "Type Mismatch" error or an "Invalid Qualifier" error

The global variable that i am using:
Dim conn as new ADODB.Connection
Dim cmd as new ADODB.Command
Dim tempString as String

The connection string that i am using is:
conn.open "UID=;pwd=;Database=Marts;" & _
"Server=localhost;Driver={SQL Server};

The statement that i am executing is:
cmd.ActiveConnection = conn
cmd.commandType = adCmdText
cmd.commandText = "Select ColumnA from TableA where ColumnB = 'ABC'"
tempString = cmd.Execute

Vista Error: "program Is Not Working" And App "has Run Out Of Time"
Client is running my vb6 app on Vista (in XP compatibility mode), and is getting an error that indicates the app "has run out of time and shuts the program down" (her words). This happens in a very specific section of the pgm that no xp machines report errors in.

Separately, on (attempted) startup, she gets the message that the app "has stopped working, where Windows will close the program and notify me later if a solution is available." But the solution is "as easy as allowing the program to close then re-opening it back up"

Help!?

Method "SaveAs" Or "Save" Of Object "Excel.Workbook" Does Not Work.
Hi people.
I did for a long time a program that uses excel automation, so that from a template will create a final file with some data pulled from the database (with ADO). At the end and when the Excel file is ready to be saved I got in a couple of computers some problems. In the whole LAN have XP, but in these 2 computers we have SP2. I have checked the rights and are OK (I have even tried to save the Workbook under the Temp folder and also the same problem).
Working with Office 2003 (SP1).
I have searched in internet about any bugs but I don´t find anything.
Any ideas.
Thanks for your time

Can't Create ActiveX Component Error
Hi,

i'm trying to scan a folder with dll files for ones with my CMain class in it. I don't know any way to just test if the dll contains a specified class.

So I used CreateObject like this:

On Error Resume Next
Set myObj= CreateObject(dllName.CMain)
...
and after if there's no error I add this DLL name to an array

BUT!! CreateObject raises an error even if I put the On error Resume Next or On error GoTo, and I really don't want to raise that annoying error.

Anyone know why I got the error ? or any way to search for a class in a dll ?
Thanx
