I developed an application using VB 6 in Visual Studio with service pack 4 on a
Win98 machine, which connects to an Access database using the Data control.
Everything works properly on the development machine. The PDW was used to create
the setup program for the application with no error. Installing the program on
other machine using the setup program went smoothly without error as well. But
when trying to run the program on other machines, it produced a error message,
the error number is 713, the description for the error is “Application defined or
object defined error” which didn’t show when running on the development machine,
which I traced it to be generated by the data control error event on the first
form which trying to access a Access 97 database through the Data Control. SO
basically the program simply didn't make the connection to the database. Checked
VB online help and MS Knowledgebase on the web but didn’t find any pertinent
information regarding the situation.  
If anyone has an idea as what might cause this, please drop me a note, I'd really
appreciated it.
Thanks in advance!

Do the other machines have:   1) MDAC installed?   2) The necessary Access
DB drivers and 3) are you having your installer setup the correct DB path
and connection information on the other machines?
