Hi,
This is acutally a visual basic question but maybe someone will think it is easy and point me to the answer. I have a program written in VB 6.0. it runs on a windows 2000 computer but gives the error ActiveX component can't create object when i run it on a win95 machine. I'm guessing because some runtime library files are missing. The only activeX component in the program is snapshot viewer which is running on win 95 machine. Where do I get the list of runtime library files, where do i put them or is there another reason why it won't run? Thanks

The libs are normally distributed along with the VB exe file in a single setup.exe file. If you only have the vb exe you would normally expect an runtime error "Library xxxxxx not found"

One other problem is Windows 2000 is 32 bit but Windows 95 is 16 bit
