The information in this article applies to:
When you try to open a Microsoft Outlook 97 item, you may receive the following error message:
Could not load an object because it is not available on this machine.
There is a reference to an ActiveX control in the item's form, and you do not have the appropriate library files for that control registered and installed on your computer.
To resolve this problem use either of these two methods.
Click OK to the error message. The item will open without displaying the problem control.
Contact the author of the form to determine how to install and register the control on your computer. This method may involve installing an additional program, which provides the control.
You may encounter this problem if a form contains a control from a programming language, such as Microsoft Visual Basic. When you open the form on a computer which does not have the programming application installed, the control is not available. Outlook does not provide a user interface for installing external controls on the destination computer.
