title: Office web component 11 - ActiveX component cant create object
body: <p>I have an classic ASP application which calls a VB6 ActiveX DLL component. The DLL uses Office web component (v11.0) to create a spreadsheet. I'm getting an error when i try to create an instance of OWC11 Spreadsheet.  </p>
  
  <pre><code>Dim oSS As OWC11.Spreadsheet
  Set oSS = New OWC11.Spreadsheet ' ActiveX component can't create object(error id 429)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The following code works perfectly in my Test environment, but fails in my production server. Both my Test and Prod environment uses Windows Server 2003 SE. </p>
  
  <p>Additional information:</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>OWC11.DLL version - 12.0.6502.5000 in test environment</p></li>
  <li><p>OWC11.DLL version - 12.0.4518.1014 in prod environment</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>The following service packs are updated in the Production server</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li><p>KB976569</p></li>
  <li><p>KB979909</p></li>
  <li><p>KB980773</p></li>
  <li><p>KB976765</p></li>
  <li><p>KB976576</p></li>
  <li><p>KB981793</p></li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Can this issue be due to the Service Pack updates?</p>
