Question about reference to COM object in VBA

[Guest]

My Visio has a reference to a COM object that we use. Apparently the
reference keeps the path to the COM object saved in the actually file. So
when user A creates a new document from my visio template and saves it the
path to the COM object is saved into the file. Then when user B attempts to
open the visio document that User A saved they get an error if the COM object
is installed into a different directory then user A.

Am I missing something? Is there a way to override this functionality or
some way to programmatically to force the document to look up the location of
the COM object when the document is opened?

Thanks,
Mike
