It depends on the actual error message. The most common is invalid license. This basically means you have a developer license installed on your PC but not on the end-users. This is usually caused by programmaticaly adding the control to a container object. The work around is to subclass the control by dropping it onto a form. Then you instanciate that subclass and work from there.
