'There is no object in this control' - Help!

[Atomic Shrimp]

I have a form in my database that contains the Common Dialogs Control.

I have tried to run the database on a different computer and I get the and error message 'the is method/property is not supported etc.', when I open the form in design view, I get the message 'There is no object in this control' even though the common dialogs control is there in the references.

Help!

"Method not supported" usually means that the relevant library does not exist on your second machine. Compare the loaded libraries between the two machines. Could also be a licence issue over the ActiveX control where your second machine isn't allowed to use it

It may be worth checking that the version number of the comdlg32.ocx on each machine is the same. I have had the same problem in the past. I cannot be 100% sure but I think I just deleted the control from the form and then setup a new control naming it the same etc.
Hope this helps
