Error 429: Activex Component Can't Create Object

    Hey All,


    I am using a 3rd party library to do some work in Office. Using their example code (exactly as they stated) I get "Error 429: ActiveX component can't create object". I get this error whenever I use the create object method, such as in the following code:


    Code
    dim DTK as DTK
set DTK = createObject("PureEdge.DTK")


    I made sure to include a reference to the '.tlb' file that is acting as its library, and intellisense is functioning with their object model. While I'm presently trying to contact the developer, I thought that this might be a generic problem that others have run into before. Any suggestions? Thanks

    Hi,


    normally you can use methods, you've combined two methods.


    1)This option needs the reference to the library

    Code
    Dim DTK As DTK 
Set DTK = new DTK.application 'Something like this


    2)This option doesn't need the reference to the library

    Code
    Dim DTK as Object
Set DTK = createObject("PureEdge.DTK")


    Hope this helps.
