I am trying to build an activeX control using MapPointControl as a part of a web application. The idea is to have the user install MP locally, but download the the activeX control (which contains MappointControl) from the web. I have create such a control and it runs fine in VB. Howevery, I am having a hard time to distribute it: when using the VB Package and Deployment wizard, the wizard fail to resolve the dependecy for MappointControl.ocx and MPNA81.tlb. If ignore them, the package is created but when the client load it, the control won initialize (won't even install, because I can find it in the registry) even though the MapPoint 2002 is installed locally.
(If I use the development machine to load the same URL, it works.)

Any help will be greatly appricated.

The MapPoint control does not support being hosted in a web browser. For details on how to create an installation disc for a VB6 application created using the MapPoint control consult this MSDN page:
