My client form won't connect to my backend mdb

Hi,

I copied an app from a customer to my computer and now it won't run.
In the Form_Open event there's code to connect to the backend mdb, but when
starting the app I get Error 429:
ActiveX component can't create object or return reference to this object
(Error 429)

I've seen it before when a dll needed reinstalling, but opening a Database?
(No permissions issues, no write-protection on the folder etc.)
Does anyone have a clue on this? Is the mdb broken or what?

Thanks,
Kristian
 
It could be there is a control on the form that cannot be loaded. Why not
try and open the table directly to eliminate this piece of code, or step
through the AutoExec, switchboard, first forms events. . . .
 
The form loads fine when I try it but won't load through code.
Can it still be a broken control?
I have to connect to the backend db and this is the startup form so I can't
bypass this. Everything else works but I must connect to the data!
