Urgent help please- my ActiveX download nightmare!

[owen]

I am haing a terrible time trying to get my VB6 activeX control to appear on
other PC's. It works fine on my PC, and fine on a fellow developer's PC.
But elsewhere, I get the dreaded "Red X in the corner but nothing else"
syndrome. After several days scratching my head (there's no error
messages of course), I found a "CodeDownloadErrorLog" in the Temp. Inernet
Files directory. This is my first and only clue as to what's wrong. But
I'm still struggling.

The error being logged is:

ERR: Setup Failed Error Code: (hr) = 8007045a, installing: MSSOAP30.dll to
(null) destination code(b)
LOG: Reporting Code Download Completion: (hr:8007045a (FAILED), CLASSID:
9f2dd9ee..., szCODEhttp://myserver/myfolder/TimesheetAX.CAB),
MainTypenull), MainExtnull))


Now all I need to know is, WHAT does that error mean? My control uses
MSSOAP30.dll but it works fine on my PC. Why would it fail elsewhere?

Thanks
Owen

....and by the way I am using the "Package Deployment Wizard" that comes with
VB6 and I've ensured that all teh required DLLs and OCXs are included in my
CAB file.

Please help!

I've turned off downloading ActiveX components. Both in IE & my
firewall.
