"Adventure" installing home-made OCX

I have an OCX with several user controls. Two of the controls are private (they are inside of a public control, but not for the use of other programmers).
A - private control, used in B
B - private control, used in C
C, D, E - public controls

I have created an install script with the PDW. When I try to install the OCX on another computer, I get the error:

&quot;Failure to load control '<name>' from <>. Your version of <> may be out dated. Make sure you are using hte version of the control that was provided with your application.&quot;

Where I typed &quot;'<name>'&quot; there really is the name of the control (&quot;B&quot; listed above). Where I type &quot;<>&quot;, there is a space, no name, no information given.

We are using project compatibility; but to be honest, I don't know what that means in particular. We were having some big adventures because there's two of us working on this project - my co-worker's done two of the controls (the private ones) and I've done three (the public ones) and passing the code back and forth became an issue. We finally worked that out by just copying over the .ctl files themselves, not any project or project group files.

I hope I explained that enough. Thanks!
Any help would be appreciated =)
