VB: Missing component error

I have a VB script for Illustrator which runs fine on my machine, but which puts up an error when it is run on a colleague's machine: 
	"Component 'MSCOMCT2.OCX' or one of its denpendencies is not correctly registered, a file is missing or invalid." 

Now, I've written other scripts which use MSCOMCT2.OCX (Microsoft Common Controls 2), and which reportedly have run without problems on the same machine which has the problem with this script. So I am baffled. 

I wrote these scripts in VB6, learning edition, so I don't have the Package and Deployment Wizard. 

One thought: if MS Office is running, will MSCOMCT2 become visible? 

Alternately, is someone with VB6Pro willing to package this script up for me? 

Any other suggestions? 

Thanks, Pat Dunlavey
