I am using the createobject("InetCtls.Inet") to ftp a text file. This works on 2 of my 4 computers, but on the other 2 I get the error - cannot create activeX control. The error occurs at this line. Is there a specific file that must be on the computer for the Inet control to work?
 
Yes, the actual activeX file needs to be on the target computer and properly registered with the Operating system.

I would check to make sure the ActiveX file exists. If not find out how to properly install it. If it does exist then try to register it manually.

Make sure that all required files are part of your setup or distribution package.

No, Check your reference or components. It should list the name and location of the file at the bottom of the dialog box.
