Randy,

Type in Start, Run:

regsvr32 scrrun.dll

If that does not help, you may need to reinstall Windows Script engine.

Download details: Windows Script 5.6 for Windows XP and Windows 2000:

Ramesh,

That is the error I was getting. I followed your instructions and after
typing in
regsvr32 wshom.ocx I got a message saying DllRegisterServer in wshom.ocx
succeeded. But when I ran clean handlers again I got the same error 429
Active X can't create object message. Any other suggestions would be
appreciated. I've been scouring the Internet looking for a solution.
Thanks
again.

RandyB
