Disappearing activex controls?

I'm working on an Access 97 based app and I'm having problems with several forms which are using MS DateTime Pickers (part of mscomct2.ocx). All appears to be fine on my dev machine (w2k) but when the user loads the forms (also office 97/w2k) they 'loose' half of the date/time controls - they're simply not there anymore, although in design view they can see where they should be.
I don't know if this is a problem with date/time pickers, activex controls or access so if you recognise the problem I'd appreciate any help you can give.

Access reports no missing references.

Someone has suggested to me that it could be a licensing problem but the wierd thing is this: on a form with 4 date/time pickers the user can see/use only 2 of them, on a different form with 8 date/time pickers the user can see/use only 4. Surely if it were a licensing thing the controls would either all work or all not work...?

Thanks,

Gus
