Now when my clients installed windows 2003 server and office 2003 and updated
all security patches, Now I am getting "run-time error 429 " . After
uninstalling and office 2003 and install it back again . Then charts working
fine after that updated with Service pack2 then again I am geiitng same error

Start by tracing, figure out where the error occurs and post the relevant code.

If you can set up a similar "problem" computer and reproduce the problem, you can
use VB's normal break/debug tools, I'd think.

Otherwise, you may need to add a lot of logging code to your apps to get some idea
where the problem occurs on a computer you have no control over.

OK, but what's your app doing at that point? It's all pretty much a wild guess until
you can figure that out.
