Broken or missing reference

I have written a simple program ( a report actually) that runs fine on almost
all PC's in my facility. However, occasionally, I get one that gives me a
broken reference error. The one in question is MSCOMCTL.OCX. I can see the
file in the system32 folder and refresh the link, but I still get this error
on this one machine. If I ignore the error, the report will run but some of
the fields that use the "Format" function will have errors.

Can anyone tell me what is going on here?

Thanks,

Mike S
 
If you do not use ActiveX controls from MSCOMCTL.OCX - you can just remove
this reference
else - you have to be sure that same version installed on all PCs and
registered using regsvr32.exe
