CommonDialog control in Access 2007 -- problem

I have serveral forms in my application that use the CommonDialog (class: MSComDlg.CommonDialog.1) control.  This had been working fine until recently when i noticed that when I create a  new form with a CommonDialog or export the form to a new application it works on only some of the computers that we have in the office.  When i try to open a form with a dialog on a computer that it does not work on I receive a message box "There is no object in this control." when i open the form.

Any reason why it would work on some but not all of the computers?


When I exported any of these forms to a different version of the application I get a error message, "There was a error loading and Active X control on one of your forms or reports". "Make sure all of the controls that you are using are properly registered.  as before."

troyvw,

Not sure, but you have to have the same DLL's and OCX files that are needed for this control, loaded on all machines.

Also make sure the same libraries in the Visual Basic Editor are loaded on all machines as well.
