I just distributed an application using the Dynazip ActiveX. When I created the setup, I had the DZ controls listed among my ActiveX controls. Therefore, I think you may not have registered the controls correctly either in Windows or in VFP. Make sure that the controls are listed in the Tools/Options/Controls listing under ActiveX.

When setup executed, it put the DLL files in exactly the right location. If you are using their standard messaging program, be sure to copy DZPROG32.EXE into your distribution directory so setup can find it, then tell setup to install the program in the system directory on the target machine.
