I'm not an expert on the intracacies of COM, but I wonder if the object is
not registered? I would imagine that a COM reference holds a file path as a
backup to an GUID/ID in the registry. If the ID isn't present, then it looks
to the file path. If the path is different, and there's no ID in the
registry, then nothing will work?
Does this fit your problem?
