Help Help trying to convert from 2003 to 2007

This is driving me crazy. I'm trying to convert my application from 2003 to
2007 and everything seem to be working fine I can run my original .mde with
out any problems, I have made some changes to the program and those changes
seem to work. I compile the program and create the .mde (I haven't converted
the my program to 2007 yet) the .mde work fine on the machine I'm developing
on. My problem comes when I package the program up and install it on a
different machine. The packaging program works great and I create the
runtime version of Access 2007. When I install the program on a test machine
and try and run it I get a error "Activex component can't create object" I
can't seem to discover why this error keeps coming up. I've doubled checked
all components that are required and don't find any missing. Is there anyway
to find out what is missing. I've been working on this for two days trying
different things but still get the same error. If anyone can help I'm about
to pull my hair out and there isn't that much left.

Thanks

Howdy, partner.

Is the ActiveX control involved one that may need to be included in you
install package?
Is the 2007 accde being installed in a Trusted Location?
Other than that, I don't have any ideas; however, this helps point out why I
never use ActiveX controls.

What control is it? There may be an API call that you can use instead.
