Trouble with VBD

Greetings,

Here's the dilemma that I have.

I am in the process of writing an ActiveX Executable for Deployment on the WWW. I want to know that its VBD is viewable on other comptuers before spending time developing the vbd. Now, I have used the Package and Deployment Wizard to package the ActiveX Executable into an Internet Cab. However when a computer goes to the HTML that is generated it doesn't run it tries to download the vbd. It does not view the vbd the way it should.

I have gone through the Package Wizard a hundred times and it doesn't seem to make any difference wheter or not some of the dlls are downloaded from Microsoft or included in the Cab. Nothing is installed when the VBD object is called. All of the Security settings for IE have been lowered to install and run unsigned ActiveX controls. Still doesn't work.

The only thing that I have noticed is that the object tag in the generated HTML contains a blank ClassID attribute. Could this be the problem.

I appreciate any view anyone might have.
