Good morning. When I try to use the Package/Deployment Wizard to generate
all the files the end user will need to run the program, I get an Error Msg:
"Unexpected error number 429 has occurred: ActiveX component can't create
the object".  Can anyone tell me how to fix this please? I tried it on two
different programs and got the same error message on each of them. TIA, Jim.

Thank you Sir. The error occurs after I choose the Package or Deploy button
so I ran the statement for the hostwiz.dll : Regsvr32 "C:\Program
Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\ COMMON\Wizards98\hostwiz.dll"  but I get
another error message. I believe this is due to the fact that I do not have
Visual Studio on my PC, I only have Visual Basic 6 Professional Edition.
What do I do now, please? TIA, Jim.

It's possible that you're using an ActiveX control that you've got installed
on your PC but not by virtue of having VB installed, and it's got
redistribution prevention on it.

I finally figured out how to fix this. I used the Search Function in Windows
Explorer to locate the file "hostwiz.dll". I then changed the "RUN"
statement accordingly and Zimbo, it now works just fine. I do appreciate
your help and I learned a bit about dependency files. You can have the
Wizard create the dependence file instead of the Deployment Package if you
choose to. Have a nice weekend. Jim.
