>>>When the form containing the new controls tries to open, you get the Windows 'OLE not registered' error. What I'd like to do is trap that error, and then prompt the user to run the installer. That way the issue remains peculiar to that machine, not the user. How can I do that?

But then wrap the creation of the form (either by Do Form or by CreateObject)... form would error out anyway.
